Brave New World



Time for some truth about what's going on in Wisconsin.

This isn't just some math problem. This is a carefully scripted plan, the first salvo in a nationwide campaign to destroy public sector unions. Then when they're gone,the GOP and Tea Party will go after the remaining private sector unions. And then there won't be anybody left to stand up against corporate rule.

This is exactly what Naomi Klein described in her book "The Shock Doctrine". Conservatives have started using "catastrophes" as cover for making radical changes
that would never be allowed to take place otherwise.

Want to invade Iraq? Scare everybody to death after 9-11. Want to take away collective bargaining? Make public unions the bad guy in a state where two thirds of the corporations pay NOTHING.

Think I'm being paranoid? Wisconsin governor Scott Walker's second largest campaign donation came from the Koch Brothers.

Check out the interviews with the Tea Party folks at the bottom of this article. Now they're starting say corporations shouldn't have to pay ANY taxes.
