As 99ers March in Solidarity with Wisconsinites, San Diego and your town may be NEXT.
Scott Jeffers, Sussex, WI - Dave& Carol Banks, Racine, WI - C Majors, Milwaukee, WI -Karen King, Madison, WI and 34 other 99ers marched in solidarity with union workers protesting in Madison WI this week, where Ed Schultz of MSNBC held a special broadcast of the Ed Show last night. (Video Below)
The answer is CLEAR: We must scour the news and the net for any rally for any cause and turn it to our 99er advantage. I have been and found this for the San Diego Area: (please spread the word as some of your contacts may have contacts close to here)
[SDCPJ] Tunis, Cairo, now Madison WI; next: SAN DIEGO
Across the world, the sheer force of people, in non-violent but insistent demonstration, is showing that change IS possible. Change for good - change for the needs of common people, and change away from concentrated power, greed and profit at the cost of lives and the public pocketbook.
Now, it is San Diego’s turn. Come out in boisterous demonstration-celebration, to Balboa Park, Saturday March 19. Save the date, plan to be there!
Print signs from the attached (FYI - the invisible man pic in 8 X 10 can also be used as masks by cutting eyes out and light elastic around the back for those who do not wish to be recognized!!! LOLOLOL) and just show up! We must take to the streets and demand our Government stop helping the rich at the expense of the poor. We need JOBS and until we have them we need UI Benefits to survive. We will NOT BE IGNORED any longer!
****NOTE: The following is from U-Cubed on the subject -
What's the core issue in WI, OH and IN? JOBS and the JOBLESS.
Those who have jobs, naturally, want to keep them. And they want the right to vote on how they're paid -- wages, pensions, health care, working conditions -- once the negotiations are over. It's the difference between democracy and autocracy.
It's also about the JOBLESS. They cannot pay taxes on little or zero income. So federal, state and local governments face deficits. And the answer from GOP governors and legislators -- axe employees and slash programs that aid the jobless -- is inane.
So, whether you have a job you'd like to hold on to or you've been unemployed for 99 weeks or more, what's happening in Wisconsin, Ohio and Indiana affects you.
Get active. Online. Offline. In State. Out of State.
Because in unity -- there is strength.
And because JOBS and the JOBLESS rise -- or fall -- together.
