Populism

[Max Sawicky]

The proof of the pudding is in the eating. The students are acting in 
solidarity with workers' movements. Populism is, and has always been, 
all over the place. A small biz owner may rail against big capital, 
but would also oppose OSHA and minimum wage laws.   Doug

"We declare, therefore:
First. That the union of, the labor forces in
the United States this day consummated shall
be permanent and perpetual; may its spirit
enter into all hearts for the salvation of
the republic and the uplifting of mankind.
. . . The interests of rural and civic labor
are the same; their enemies are identical."

Ignatius Donnelly
