Spencer Black and David Newby explain the support of the Koch brothers for Scott Walker's union-busting, voter suppression, and the rest--and why they think the base for such antics is eroding.


from GRITtv:


"Wisconsin has a proud tradition in terms of labor, the environment, of people standing up to the power and money of big corporations," says Spencer Black, former chair of the Wisconsin State Assembly Natural Resources Committee. And those big corporations don't like that tradition one bit. The Bradley Foundation, a right-wing organization with connections with the billionaire Koch brothers, has poured money into Walker's anti-union, anti-worker campaign, and they're not stopping with union busting.

1. Ode

After too many bourbons and scotches,
Scott Walker’s agenda, he botches.
He said, “I am the most,
And that union is toast,
But I thought he was one of the Koches!”
