Over the past couple weeks I have been hearing about the Workers in Wisconsin who are fighting to stop the passage of AB11, a bill that would strip workers of collective bargaining and cuts to other things like their pensions and health benefits. In the crazy economy we are living through, we see the response by government to cuts to social services, we see the tuition hikes in our public universities. And we look around and see that the rich are still getting richer and paying less and less taxes. While this is happening we see working people under attack for being greedy and demanding too much in these hard economic times, a perfect time to attack workers and take away what has been won by the Labor Movement. The worst is seeing attacks on Unions by idiots who call their members unamerican, hearing people on the radio call the protestors thugs. Hearing the Governor of Wisconsin who was recorded on a telephone call with a blogger pretending to be one of the Koch Brothers talking about how he has contemplated sending agent provocateurs to undermine protesters efforts. This was what really pushed me to make a solidarity poster, I think that in these tough economic times we need to support workers when they demand fair treatment so they can survive these times.
A colorized photograph of a person smiling and holding a protest sign which reads, “Union thug.” They are bundled up for the cold, wearing a winter hat and jacket. In the background are other marchers, holding the U.S. flag in a city scene. Below, text states “Solidarity with workers in Wisconsin. Banging on the System. Collective bargaining is non-negotiable.”
