Wisconsin is not just about unions and union busting. It’s about a transformation in the relationship between the people and the plutocrats.
The global situation demands a resolution far more radical than anything conventional politicians would countenance. I believe in the wisdom of an awakened populace; I believe that, left to their own devices, the people will demand and generate new solutions to the climate change issue, to energy, to the global food crisis, and to a new system of wealth distribution.
If our Administration intervenes in this process, it will be to seek some temporary and unsatisfactory “compromise” that fails to address the deep and abiding problems we face as a species and as members of the biosphere; it will only serve to abort the great awakening far short of the point it must reach if we are to survive the coming century.
