These companies spend money lobbying for fewer regulations--and they get their way and fatter pockets. Meanwhile, we keep seeing more derailments--there were two on Monday alone!--more environmental destruction, and more suffering.

People were forced to leave their pets and other animals in the town--where they're now dying en masse.

You know what Evan Lambert was reporting on that got him tackled, handcuffed, arrested and charged?

Not that anyone will much care when it comes election time but if you’re curious on whether your Congressional Representative voted to support the right of unions to strike:

Mine did not & it was such an egregious violation of the concept of unions I don’t think I can vote for my rep again. Unions are the best, last check on the bought-and-paid for political class, warts and all. #Rail #UnionBusting #Politics #Unions #railRoadStrike

It's pretty sad seeing federal legislators trying to launder their involvement in breaking the rail strike. I mean, the best we can hope for is they didn't really get they were breaking a strike at the time? I kinda hope so, because if it was conscious then that's really bleak.
