Today’s headline US Senate committee clears Boeing lawyer’s stalled NLRB nomination marks almost exactly 51 weeks since the Democrats alley-ooped the NLRB to the Republicans for a slam dunk. Here’s a reminder of how that happened (under Biden, too). Republicans keep swallowing political institutions whole in the U.S., and anyone who has their faith placed in the Democrats must be completely delusional, especially after the recent government shutdown disgrace.
I would say that now the U.S. is officially under corporate control (yes, I know it was before but I mean now it’s legally locked down), what with the NLRB and Supreme Court in the Republicans’ pocket. Labor doesn’t stand a chance anymore.
… Prove me wrong???
Yeah it didnt tske a year. We’ve been consolidating government and corporate power since like the 70s. The combining of corporate ans government power is fascism. Which means we’ve been fascist for a while and most politicians support it as they rail corporate dick to get their pockets lined. We are fucked. Unless we can wipe the whole government clean, but theres no promise the replacements would be better. This is why states and centralized power suck. Anarchy is the only way forward.
