Public Sector Union members are our brothers,sisters,wives,husbands,partners,lovers and children who every day try to make our lives better by doing their jobs, only to be treated like shit by Republican Party hacks who only have respect for the likes of the reprehensible Koch brothers or Mort Zuckerman. We, every day, have reason to be grateful for lives lived in public service, in the vital life of this res publica, the public matter, the commonwealth. The Free Market is failed as idea and practice, a one dimensional intellectual notion, unable to see beyond its own narrow rationalizations for greed. Public Sector Unions are engaged with us in our common struggle to build an optimally functioning republic, with concern and care for each citizen. As a Political Cosmopolitan I embrace all sentient creatures of good will, as a part of that greater community.
