Full Show - 3/10/11. Death of Democracy in America

In Wisconsin, State Senate Republicans used what they claim is a loophole in the law to officially cut from state employees nearly all collective bargaining rights. Thom explains how this latest move is part of a larger plan to destroy Democracy in America. Then the Koch brothers have employed a PR company to act as a 'sock puppet' for them on websites, including Wikipedia. Plus, Thom talks with consumer advocate and author, Erin Brockovich about the lack of clean drinking water in this country.

The government is purposely poisoning the water. Fuck public sector unions they are completely corrupt and they waste the money I pay them.

@NathanielEverist Ok stupid. Then check out his shows surrounding the protests in Wisconsin for the passed two weeks. It will reveal that he didn't put it together until Mar 8th 2011. Go ahead prove me wrong. Give me a date prior that he talked about it.

@Masonsky123 Don't flatter yourself, I've seen Thom discussing the Corporate takeover of the U.S at least a year ago, and I'm sure he's discussed it prior to then.

4 shows ago Thom Hartmann wasn't talking about the corporate take over of America. I'e been posting that here and on RT for months. Some one there(RT) is reading my posts. Hard to believe? Yeah I know.

[Masonsky123]

You have been stealing my thoughts. Some one at RT must have been reading my posts at Alyona youtube web page, becuase twice I wrote something and the next day you reported it. At least give me credit for it.
