Imagine a little restaurant in the seaside resort where you vacation. Everyone is so busy there at this time of year you would think that no one had time for labor strife. You would be wrong. Story below the squiggle.

I just read your diary for the Monday night cancer club. It's been a tough road for you, but I see your will to keep going and you have the strength to win. My tale is for you.

If you are a first-generation Trekkie (a follower of the original series and its endlessly repeated episodes), you know the bombast and sincerity of William Shatner's speeches. Love and politics with aliens were his stock in trade.

I love being prescient. I should go down to pick a MegaMillions number. Since the James Hoffa kerfluffle, I get to say "See, that's the way to do it!" from my diary of two weeks ago.

I just came in for a minute to catch up on Irene. I clicked away from the Weather Channel during a commercial and clicked onto Fox News (they are close together on my cable system). I see a screen divided into three parts, male with glasses (Union guy), the beautiful blonde host, and raven-haired commentator. The host wants to know if the unions are being hypocritical for pouring money into political campaigns since they had been opposed to the Citizens United ruling.

Union guy starts to say no, that labor's voice needs to be heard. Raven-hair smirks on the other side of my screen. I had lasted 10 seconds and I turned off the TV.

The Union guy should have said "We wish it were otherwise, but Corporate America (read-Republicans) are our sworn enemies. They have said over and over that they wish the Union movement would die, and they have declared all-out war on Unions. They wish to return America to a time of serfdom. They suck. We have to fight with everything we have just to survive."

Cut the bullshit and get out there and fight!

The Democrat ransom payment ensures that the country will continue to pay its bills, but the country is a blood-drained shadow of its former self. Without the capacity to raise any more money, the United States will just be able to hang on. There won't be any rioting, fist-shaking or even harsh words from the defeated.
