Sam,<br><br>and our labor friends out there, I would really appreciate an assessment of the Wisconsin mobilizations as a tippping point for the labor and global p2p movement,<br><br>after the Arab uprisings, thanks for inspiring us again, this time from the very heart of the beast,<br>
<br>after 30 years ever increasing and non-reciprocal value extraction out of working people, it seems to time for reacting and rebuidling has finally come about,<br><br>Michel<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Mar 11, 2011 at 11:21 AM, Samuel Rose <span dir="ltr">&lt;<a href="mailto:samuel.rose@gmail.com">samuel.rose@gmail.com</a>&gt;</span> wrote:<br>

&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt;&gt; &quot;An amendment to require Emergency Managers to hold monthly public<br>
&gt;&gt; meetings to let people know how they are governing was rejected by<br>
&gt;&gt; Senate Republicans, along with proposals to cap Emergency Manager<br>
&gt;&gt; compensation and require that those appointed to run school districts<br>
&gt;&gt; have some background in education.&quot;<br>
&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt;&gt; No public oversight, no education qualifications needed, no cap on compensation.<br>
&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt;&gt; Although the attention has been on Wisconsin, this action here in<br>
&gt;&gt; Michigan is even more draconian, unconstitutional, and the most<br>
&gt;&gt; undemocratic law ever proposed and passed in Michigan.<br>
&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt;&gt; As bad as this is, we are seeing it here as an opportunity to build a<br>
&gt;&gt; permanent platform for p2p political advocacy here in Michigan and in<br>
&gt;&gt; Wisconsin if people are interested there. We&#39;ll keep you updated.<br>

&gt; This coming Tuesday a huge rally is scheduled to happen here in<br>
