Kick ALEC, Koch & GOP Tea Party out of US Government

TAKE BACK AMERICA 

FROM KOCH  & ALEC & GOP TEA PARTY

Koch financing TeaParty
A Political Crisis:

Charles and David Koch, the billionaire brothers with the second biggest fortune in America, are threating to bankroll primary campaigns by Tea Party extremists challenging Republicans in Congress who don’t go along with their crusade to undo the Affordable Care Act, Sen. Bernie Sanders said on Saturday during a 90-minute presentation at The New Yorker Festival. Then on Sunday The New York Times published a report detailing how the Kochs and others bankrolled a coalition of conservative activists pushing to repeal the health care law and threatening Republicans who won’t go along with closing the government to try to get their way.

It’s “a political crisis,” Sanders said of the shutdown. It is part of a Koch-funded campaign to annul the law that passed Congress four years ago and was upheld by the Supreme Court and was a key issue in the 2012 presidential campaign that President Obama won by 5 million votes. And it is about more than trying to unwind what the American people decided through the democratic process, Sanders stressed.Their agenda is to end Social Security and Medicare, abolish the minimum wage, destroy the EPA and undo every other program enacted in the past half century to protect working families in America, Sanders added.

ALEC HAS OPERATED IN SECRET FOR OVER 40 YEARS DOING UNTOLD DAMAGE TO AMERICA
GOOD NEWS THE WORD IS OUT! 

The Nation Magazine has an update about recent  ALEC activities.  It is a must read in my opinion. It illustrates how ALEC has gone unchecked for over 40 years...they spent a lot of time scheming & planning--sorta correlates to when this country started moving to the right and going into a death spiral FIND OUT WHAT CORPORATIONS SUPPORT ALEC...go to their web sites locate the "contact" info and start sending emails, letters and tweets, we now know who these people are. They are not operating under a cloak of secrecy anymore. We need to let them know that we will boycott their products, expose them and disgrace them hit them in their pocketbooks that is what will stop them there may be 1% of them but there are 99% of us and if we refuse to continue spending our $$$ with them we can hurt them and begin to take back our country ....

YOU MIGHT NEED TO GIVE UP A FEW CUTE CAT VIDEOS BUT IF YOU CARE ANYTHING ABOUT WHO IS CONTROLLING THE LAWS IN THIS COUNTRY 
 "By changing the laws one State at a time"
MAKE SURE TO WATCH THIS VIDEO - The United States of ALEC   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q0CaOhS7wJg

Published on Oct 1, 2012
September 28, 2012: Moyers & Company presents "United States of ALEC," a report on the most influential corporate-funded political force most of America has never heard of -- ALEC, the American Legislative Exchange Council. A national consortium of state politicians and powerful corporations, ALEC presents itself as a "nonpartisan public-private partnership." But behind that mantra lies a vast network of corporate lobbying and political action aimed to increase corporate profits at public expense without public knowledge.

"United States of ALEC" is a collaboration between Okapi Productions, LLC and the Schumann Media Center, headed by Bill Moyers, which supports independent journalism and public watchdogs including the Center for Media and Democracy, whose investigators are featured in the report.

Using interviews, documents, and field reporting, the episode explores ALEC's self-serving machine at work, acting in a way one Wisconsin politician describes as "a corporate dating service for lonely legislators and corporate special interests."

In state houses around the country, hundreds of pieces of boilerplate ALEC legislation are proposed or enacted that would, among other things, dilute collective bargaining rights, make it harder for some Americans to vote, and limit corporate liability for harm caused to consumers -- each accomplished without the public ever knowing who's behind it.
