Teach Walker and Koch About Economics

Rate: 2 Flag

Here is what we must do immediately

(1) Organize a mass pull out of funds owned by all public sector union members in savings, checking,etc., from all Wisconsin banks and having the same deposited in their respective credit unions.

(2) To the extent members have loans with any of these banks, perhaps the credit union can refinance them so that it deprives the banks of earning interest income.

(4) Identify financial institutions that are labor friendly i.e. credit unions either within or outside of Wisconsin that can offer consumer or home loans should a member need credit.

(5) I saw of list of car dealers that donated money to Walker. All of his financial supporters should be identified and if they have a business, boycotted ASAP.

(6) Brainstorm ideas on how towns, cities, etc, that are labor friendly can possibly make life miserable for Walker's business supporters via zoning and in other ways, relative to any fees they must pay for sewer, water, etc. MAY-DAY-RED-EYE-AGAINST-CAPITALISM-

I've already donated money through the AFSCME website, and I believe that this most directly benefits Wisconsin workers. You can specify where your donation for money in Wisconsin goes to through Move On. You can support the Wisconsin 14. Or you can support the recall effort as well as through other directions. And the Daily Kos has a fundraising drive to recall Republican bastards.

Donate generously!
The defining political event would be a public employee strike.

Corporate give-aways (in the budgeting process) negate the illegality of strikes.

Fascism (Walker/Koch) is un-American.
