How can we fund universal childcare, Medicare for All, and a green economy while reducing inequality? A new plan shows how taxing wealth and corporate profits more fairly—and cutting wasteful spending—could pay for a fairer, more prosperous economy.
Defend Ohio--Stop Kasich: Hat-tip to D&S pal Taki M. about this rally, organized partly by sometime D&S author Dan La Botz (who also ran for U.S. Senate in Ohio in 2010, under the banner "Dan La Botz--Buckeye Socialist"!). Here are the details:
Should Ohio collective bargaining rights to public workers? Privatize the Ohio Turnpike? Cut taxes for the affluent while gutting education?
It's time to defend Ohio and defeat the Kasich agenda.
Join the Defend Ohio Campaign to support good jobs, schools, & public services. We will assemble (indoors) at 172 E. State Street, Columbus on Saturday, January 8th at 12 p.m., to defend Ohio. After hearing from leading Ohio activists, we will walk to the Statehouse to publicly express our opposition to Governor-elect Kasich’s attacks on workers, education, and public services.
The Defend Ohio Campaign unites Ohioans of diverse political perspectives. We oppose Governor-elect Kasich’s divisive attacks on unions and public employees and his plans for deep cuts to schools,
Medicaid, and vital public services. For more information, contact defendohiocampaign--at--gmail--dot--com.
