“…anyone who believes that we need some counterweight to the political power of big money should be on the demonstrators’ side.”—Wisconsin Power Play
“Government, historically, has been one of the greatest perpetrators of injustices in this country. OUR government. So if we’re talking then about justice for everybody then even those workers who work for the government ought not to be subject to being maltreated. Let’s get off this beating up on unions. We work an eight-hour workday because of unions. We have a minimum wage, it’s not a living wage, but a minimum wage because of unions. Companies have to give health care because of unions. So much of what we enjoy in the workplace came because of unions.”—Tavis Smiley - Unions Maintain Justice For All
