Reich, former secretary of labor under President Bill Clinton and Chancellor’s professor of public policy at the University of California at Berkeley—and the AFL-CIO—wants to hear your ideas on new ways the labor movement can change economic trends that hurt working people. He poses this question: “The rich keep getting a bigger share of the economic pie while everyone else’s share keeps shrinking. What should be done to reverse this trend?”http://www.twitpic.com/cxsr5u

In football terms, “piling on” means jumping on a player when he's down. In the economic new normal described by Bernie Sanders, it means taking most of the wealth and all of the income, moving profits and jobs overseas, and making impoverished people pay the bills. 1. Taking ALL the Income Charles Koch said, “I want my fair share — and that's all of it.” He's been getting his wish lately.

#union #iww #occupy #ows #p2 #p21 #tlot #tcot #TeaParty Women Of The Black Panther Party (Pictured: Women Of The Panthers At Free Huey Rally) https://plus.google.com/u/0/communities/116436450126073061172 No matter how you look at the Black Panther Party, it was a powerful grassroots activist movement seeking to further the civil right’s of every American. Black Panther Party, was an “All Power To All The People!” organization, whether you're black, white, blue, green, yellow, or polka dot. We believed in black unity, but only as a catalyst to help humanize the world. The Black Panther Party worked for self-determination and social justice for all people The Black Panther Party sought to end racism AND sexism. The Black Panthers were brothers and sisters. They fought alongside each other and it was an egalitarian subculture; much more so than mainstream America in the 60′s, when women were meant to be homemakers and live a mindless, obligatory existence for the sole purpose of serving others (husband and children). In the subculture of the Black Panther Party and Black Liberation Movement during the era of the Civil Rights, the women had stature, presence and perhaps, almost as much power as the men did in this movement (especially Angela Davis). These Black Panther women’s voices were heard, encouraged, and they said whatever the hell they wanted. In these two cultures (white and black) which were world’s apart but co-existed in America during the Civil Rights Revolution, this positive aspect of the movement was often overlooked. Women in the Black Panther Party were fighting for women’s rights, and they were fighting with their voices, their passion to end inequity and to establish basic human rights. These women were an integral, critical influence in the feminist/women’s rights movement. These black women were at the dangerous activist forefront of establishing more freedom and rights for women of every color. And make no mistake, there were also white and brown women right by their sides. #blackpantherparty #bobbyseale #blackpanthers #womenblackpanthers #kathleencleaver #angeladavis All Power To All The People!

Now he leads a team of railroad employees. The difference, he says, is obvious: “I'm not getting shot at anymore.” But it's the similarities between serving in the military and working for the railroad that draw Major and many other former military members to this type of work. “For a veteran — a person who thrives off excitement, a mission and a chain of command — you tend to seek out companies like that,” said Major, who has worked for Union Pacific for about two years.
