Oh please. So you think that unions made these laws and if unions are gone so are the laws? How did you let yourself become so brainwashed?
I suggest that you read some American history. The right wing has always been opposed to these types of reforms just like they have always been opposed to any kind of reform. It was only because of social and labour activists that any kind of social progress has happened in the USA. The right by definition is conservative. That means they are reactionary. They not only want to stop all forward progress they want to go back to a time when they and theirs held ALL the cards. People are just so decieved by the lies and propaganda the right feeds them like, "We are all about family values". That's so much BS it makes me barf. " We are all about fiscal responsibility", Ya right, after you loot the country to line your own pockets you don't give one crap about regular Americans.
I suggest that all Americans go to a library, get some books and find out the history of you OWN country. I'm sure that you will find that there has been very few Great Americans coming from the right side of the spectrum. It's very difficult to be great when you represent just a small % of the people and your main preoccupation is holding down the majority so that your class dominates the life of the nation.
Anything with the word "truth" and Maddow is an oxymoron.
She's been proven to be a liar and fast and lose with the facts.
Let's hear some from you. I'll bet we won't hear anything from you because the statement is FALSE.
If she was a liar like you say she would be working at Fox. It's the only network where lies are the norm and not the rule. CNN, NBC, CBS, and MT favorite of course CBC may bend the truth at times but it's only Fox where there is no truth at all.
No MSNBC is opinion and an alternative to Fox and other right-wing media. It reacts to what is said by the Right and often holds a mirror up to it. It makes the case for democracy over plutocracy.
On her MSNBC program, Rachel Maddow explained what the protests in Wisconsin are really all about. Maddow said, “What’s happening in Wisconsin right now is not about a budget. This is about elections. This is about the Republican Party going after the institutions that make it possible for Democrats to win elections in America.”
So obviously true and thank you Rachel for explaining it so eloquently. Maybe the problem is that naysayers are not used to eloquence...after all, their ears are tuned to "Palin Speak". Quite a difference in wavelength, level of sophistication and intelligence.
Why not go after the BANKS that stole America's money by selling crappy mortgages to the pension funds that now cannot pay retirees?

She's not wrong. The fact that anyone would find themselves confused because there's more than one set of mathematics going on in more than one set of books is the problem. Last I heard in elementary math classes we don't get to reinvent the meaning of the numbers one and two. It's a fixed quantity we all agree on when we speak. Decide for yourselves it means something else, there is a breakdown in civilizations math. It's weights and measures compromised so horribly no one can count on gravity anymore save for those still pulling strings in commodities markets controlling our government.
Whose bright idea was it to change accounting standards? A dead elephant desperately trying to reinvent itself even if it has to sell it's soul to the devil himself. God DAMN America, we hope America fails. They're evil. Straight up evil.

----- Notice, though, that NBC, CBS, ABC (the so-called "liberal media") never counter Fox, but either ditto it or say nothing. To me, that amounts to support. Remember they are corporate-owned and, more likely than not, prefer Republicans (imo). The "mainstream liberal media" is a myth.

Yes, blame teachers who TEACH OUR FUTURE.
------ The banks did more than that. They speculated wildly, then got bailed out.

----- The elephant HAS sold its soul and Americans must wake up. Today's Republican party is the party of plutocracy and Fox is its voice.
