Like the post office, whether it rains or shine absent a hurricane or some natural or physical disaster, we broadcast Politics Done Right. Sometimes even from riding buses, airplanes, hotel rooms, and conference centers.
Today I was up early pitching to raise funds for KPFT 90.1 FM Houston. Last night I was up late processing time sensitive videos. There was no time to arrange a specific topic. But with so much going on, we can cover many or any topic you want and that is what we will do. As I tell you always, this is your show and you can change its direction anytime whether or not I have a topic. So let’s get busy. Tell me!
Points:
- Joy-Ann Reid comments on the Democratic Leadership were spot on.
- Farmer bailout because of tariffs. Picking winners & losers?
Topics:
CommonDreams: Beware Billionaires Bearing Gifts: There’s a new Koch organization in town. Instead of trying to buy politicians to do the bidding of billionaires, as Charles and David Koch have historically done, this foundation will support community groups trying to cure the miseries of eons—everything from poverty to addiction.
And they’ve got some street cred, having successfully worked with renowned liberal Van Jones to secure legislation to reduce mass incarceration. Billionaire Charles Koch says the mission is this: “We must stand together to help every person rise.”
That is some good stuff, right there. It’s what labor unions have always preached—workers must stand together to gain the collective power essential to pull every one of them up. It works, too. In the middle of the last century, collective bargaining created the great American middle class. Labor unions are created and controlled by workers. Billionaire-funded organizations are beholden to billionaires.
There’s an important difference, though, between the work of labor unions and billionaire-funded organizations. Labor unions are created and controlled by workers. Billionaire-funded organizations are beholden to billionaires.
What could be so bad, though, about accepting gifts from billionaires? Just last week, billionaire Robert F. Smith promised to pay off the student loans of 396 graduates of Morehouse College. That means these young people get to launch their careers without the burden of debt. Smith granted the loan forgiveness with no stipulations other than urging every member of the class of 2019 to do what they could to pay it forward—that is, help others achieve as well.
