Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Is it irresponsible to speculate? It is irresponsible not to.

Make the republican party small enough to drown in a bathtub.

We are builders in a constant struggle with destroyers. let’s win this.

We’ve had enough carrots to last a lifetime. break out the sticks.

Red lights blinking on democracy’s dashboard

Why did Dr. Oz lose? well, according to the exit polls, it’s because Fetterman won.

Putting aside our relentless self-interest because the moral imperative is crystal clear.

Their freedom requires your slavery.

You don’t get rid of your umbrella while it’s still raining.

This blog will pay for itself.

Let us savor the impending downfall of lawless scoundrels who richly deserve the trouble barreling their way.

Meanwhile over at truth Social, the former president is busy confessing to crimes.

Reality always lies in wait for … Democrats.

Speaking of republicans, is there a way for a political party to declare intellectual bankruptcy?

This really is a full service blog.

Everybody saw this coming.

But frankly mr. cole, I’ll be happier when you get back to telling us to go fuck ourselves.

No one could have predicted…

And we’re all out of bubblegum.

I know this must be bad for Joe Biden, I just don’t know how.

“Everybody’s entitled to be an idiot.”

The next time the wall wtreet journal editorial board speaks the truth will be the first.

Infrastructure week. at last.

I see no possible difficulties whatsoever with this fool-proof plan.

Organized Labor in America

by | 5 Comments

This post is in: 

Briefly:

I am running a series on organized labor in America over at The League. A number of guest authors are contributing (though I am looking for more). The first post in the series is live today. It’s by mutualist writer, Kevin Carson, author of Homebrew Revolution. He talks about the ways the government has suppressed labor in this country going back to Taft-Hartley and FDR, and suggests ways that unions can operate today given the laws we have in place. It’s worth a read.

I also have a slightly updated version of my Death and Life of the Great American Middle Class piece up at The League (added some links and graphs/pics to the post mainly).

More posts in the Organized Labor in America series will appear in the coming days, and if anyone is interested in submitting a post for the series, shoot me an email.

    Does anybody have any good links to articles regarding labor unions in Germany?

    My understanding is that labor enjoys greater power and prestige vs. capital there than it does in the US, and is treated as a true partner in managing the corporation, yet this doesn’t seem to have hurt their manufacturing sector (to put it mildly). A comparative analysis of the position, influence and struggle of unions in the US vs. in other OECD countries would be helpful and Germany seems like a good place to start, but I’m not an expert in this area.

    Keep up the good work E.D. These posts are very helpful in educating what unions actually mean in terms of their check on unfettered capitalism and there role in the marketplace.
