I recommend reading this piece by More Perfect Union.

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.

Reported here:

from twitter:
"five dollars per person for poisoning the air, water, and land of this town. all pets dead, the poisoned water now flowing into the ohio river on its way to the mississippi. five dollars"

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

The train derailment that did this.

You know what was about?

Preventing this.

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:

govtrack.us/congress/votes/117

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.

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.
