Countdown: FireDogLake's David Dayen: GOP intends starvation diet for states

[FriedDaisy]

How can anyone who works for a living-- 40 hours a week, maybe 1 or 2 week vacation per year (maybe unpaid), no overtime pay (even if required tasks force overtime hours), with a less than adequate health insurance plan (or none), no short or long-term disability package, a crappy stock market dependant retirement ponzi scheme (or nothing), and a pro-employer/anti-employee agreement which must be signed prior to employment so firing is painless & protest futile-- be anti union? It's irrational.

I hope that it is clear to most folks that this is a controlled collapse brought on by FED policies and bank deregulation. We can thank Alan Greenspan and Bill Clinton for this. And the R's can get their dream of "pull yourself up" BUT their are few jobs due to outsourcing---42,000 + corp. so far. Thanks Government and banks/FED for ruining our country.
