The troubles of organized labor, underscored after the Wisconsin recall election defeat. Why did more than 37% of union households vote to keep the anti-union Scott Walker in office? Is this the end of the road for the much touted clout of organized labor? And what could this mean for the Democrats?
Then there are the wars: AfPac and the drum beat for war against Syria. And the
balance of power in the Middle East continues to be explosive. The latest salvo is that what is being described as a military coup has taken place in Egypt. The Supreme
Court has dissolved parliament and put the army backed candidate back into Egyptian Presidential elections.
Meanwhile, middle class wealth has plummeted by 40% since the recession began, while the wealth of the 1% has increased in the same period. Wall Street has responded by choosing Romney. They have donated at least $31.1 million to Romney and $4.8 million to President Obama. And, with the Presidential race in a dead heat, Obama's support among white men is continuing to fall. |
