World-News

Dave Johnson, Campaign for Americas Future: 'Every poll shows that the public wants the same thing that economists say we need: increases in spending on the things that grow our economy, cuts in military and tax increases on the rich and big corporations (2/3 of which pay no taxes at all) - the very items that are 'off the table' in the budget negotiations!.. How bad are our negotiators, when the public is solidly behind the right thing to do,and they are negotiating with a starting position that is the opposite of good policy and public demand?'

Labor Pains and the GOP

Michael Winship, Truthout: 'Radical Islam and global terrorism may have replaced World Communism and the Cold War as the threats lurking under every bed and behind each closet door but organized labor is the conservative bugbear that keeps on giving, no matter which international conspiracy is busily undermining the republic... The fact remains that labor is nowhere near the nefarious force of iniquity they would have you think it is.'
