The incredible irony of all this is that the fascist movement in Europe that lasted from the 1920s to 1945 was actually pro-worker/pro-union. Their platform bore a striking resemblance to the Progressive movement platform at that time, since they were both outgrowths of the same type of thought.. namely:
Pro-worker/pro-union
Minimum-wage
Less unemployment
Soak the rich
Redistribution of wealth.
Class warfare based rhetoric
Hitler's Germany ceased to be that after the late 30s, but Mussolini's never did.
And note here I'm NOT calling Liberals/Progressives Hitlers.. even though there WAS a racial component ( Eugenics was part of Progressivism, aimed at reducing the numbers/influence of what they called the 'dirty races')
Michigan is one step closer to becoming a Right to Work state. Last night, both the state House and Senate passed bills that would forbid the public sector unions from taking 2% out of workers’ paychecks for dues payments, regardless of whether or not they’re members. The bills can’t be passed into law until Tuesday, owing to procedural requirements, but they’re almost sure to prevail, at which point Gov. Rick Snyder has vowed to sign them.
The House and Senate each passed bills on the same day they were introduced that give private and public sector workers...
Its the evil reality of it all.
