Late in the evening

It's late in the evening, most people who know me know I should be in bed by now.  I have a meeting in the early morning, but sleep has been elusive lately. 

What's running through my head ?  As Mel Brooks says in "History of the World, Part 1"  Politics, Politics Politics"  I am looking at the malarkey ( my Dad used to use that word a lot!) being tossed about by local politicians and those behind the Propositions.  I am sick to death of lies, lies lies ( isn't that a song from the 80s'?)  Prop 32 says it will prevent  Unions from taking money from automatic deductions on employees paychecks and will prevent them from contributing to causes employees don't believe in.  What they DON'T tell you is who is behind it.  That's right, all the people who are EXEMPT from the law.  The Koch brothers .Those guys who were behind the  changes to worker's rights in Wisconsin  So often the word "Union" is demonized, as if they were evil and run by people who's only interest is contrary to serving the public good.  UNIONS are made up of WORKERS which apparently  scares the crap out of big business.  The ads out there about how unions are stealing from workers would be laughable if people didn't believe it.  We need unions, to protect the worker from Big Business.  The Koch Brothers are living proof that the plight of the American worker is precarious, protected only by unions who will continue to fight to keep a safe workplace.  Look at who is behind the Propositions and READ them before you believe the hype.  No on 32!
