I guess there's a video in the OP on your computer. Thanks for the link, but when I go there, no matter what I click on it, just keeps loading. But that's a good video, very well done.

If the decimation of the public sector unions continues, think of the knowledge base and organizational skills that will be lost to us. That is the GOP plan however.

They've destroyed the knowledge base of many professions and communities, sot that things are being unprofessionally and brutally. Which they replace with their theocratic ideology. Scary times.

Well made. Saw it on facebook. It got me thinking about Oklahoma, and how these issues are everywhere. Red states, blue states, etc.
