In Tennessee Republican
lawmakers are threatening to withhold tax incentives for a Volkswagen
automotive plant. Why you may ask? The lawmakers are up in arms
that the workers might decide to join the United Auto Workers union a
move that V.W. Is in favor of. I guess the Republicans think people
shouldn't be able to make their own decisions.
In South Dakota Republican
lawmakers blocked a measure that would have allowed state voter's to
vote on if they wanted the state to expand Medicaid under the
Affordable Care Act, which 63% if the people of that state want. The
Republicans have decided that the people shouldn't have a say in
their own lives. They know best because they say so.
In Wisconsin the Club for
Growth is suing to stop a state investigation of the 2011&2012
recall elections. They say their right to free speech, free
assembly, and equal protection under the law is being infringed on.
The investigation is looking into a illegal coordination between the
Club for Growth and the Republican candidates that were running for
office. I guess if I had something to hide I'd be worried too.
In Kansas Republican
Senator Pat Roberts won't release details about how much time
he actually spends in
state seeing that the good Senator doesn't actually maintain a home
there. I can see why he might be a little nervous about it.
These people are the
people who claim that voter fraud is rampant, and unions are
destroying this country. My take on this is that these people and
people like them are destroying this country in the name of a
political philosophy that is morally bankrupt.
