>As Tim's comments show, there are a bunch who, despite China's nearly
complete capitulation to capitalist economics, continue to defend their
brutal anti-labor policies. At this point, China is far worse than almost
any country's economic policies, since they combine capitalist laissez-faire
towards workers with brutal undemocratic anti-union policies.
Nathan, As I said before, you are living in la-la land when it comes to
analyzing the AFL's foreign policy. To say that people like me who opposed
the anti-PNTR campaign of the AFL and the Naderites are "defend(ing) China's
broad anti-labor policies" is insulting and underscores your inability to
grapple intellectually and honestly with the principled critique of the
policies of your beloved federation president - who, I hasten to repeat, is
speaking today with Bibi Netenyahu.
