OWS isn't a Relevant Movement to Change Society and May Hurt Us More then It Helps Us

286. Yep, it did overturn the Kasich anti union bill.........

But everything that Walker put into place in Wisconsin is still in place. INCLUDING Walker. They voted out enough Republicans to make the margin closer, BUT THE STATE HOUSE IS STILL IN REPUBLICAN HANDS.

And finally, it will take a REPEAL of those laws to get them off the books. Do you really think even a Dem majority will actually REPEAL those laws? IF they can vote out Walker, vote in a Dem governor and vote in a Dem majority in BOTH state houses they MIGHT have a CHANCE to repeal those laws. But will the Koch brothers buy enough of the new Dems to stymie a repeal? Will centrist neoliberal Dems even have the balls to TRY and repeal those laws? All these questions are still pending and I'm not really hopeful. Capitalism and money has WAY too strong of a hold on the political system as it's currently formulated to offer any real change inside the system.

I guess we'll soon see about how much real change the recall efforts bring about. And why don't we see what the Occupy movement is doing NEXT year. As I said the Wisconsin uprising predated the Occupy movement by 6+ months.
