I don’t know whether he’s connected to Koch brothers. I have absolutely, positively NO PROBLEM with the Koch Bros. They employ 50,000 or more people: They pay Salaries, benefits, pensions, contribute to 401K’s, contribute toward employee’s education, and give Tons to Charity too! We Need More like the Koch Bros. They create jobs and employ! JOBS.

AMP is a political front for the Koch Brothers. Charles Lewis, the founder of the Center for Public Integrity, a nonpartisan watchdog group, said, “The Kochs are on a whole different level. There’s no one else who has spent this much money. The sheer dimension of it is what sets them apart. They have a pattern of lawbreaking, political manipulation, and obfuscation. I’ve been in Washington since Watergate, and I’ve never seen anything like it.”

He will be an asset to AFP. I’m for anyone who endorses SB5. after seeing those union members in Wisconsin act like complete brats, I support ending collective bargaining and ending tax increases for the Middle class workers.

Deregulating the airline industry during the Carter administration was an economic boon to tens of millions of middle-class Americans who, due to lower costs, were suddenly able to travel by air. Reagan’s policies are not what has busted unions over the last 30 years. In fact, it is the work of Democrat Jimmy Carter and his deregulators that has had a far more detrimental impact on unions than Reagan ever did. Union bosses, Democrats and their sycophantic followers on the Left have been allowed to rewrite history for 30 years. While Ronald Reagan did fire more than 11,000 air traffic controllers when they engaged in (as federal workers) an illegal strike less than a year after taking office, the strike contingency plan Reagan deployed had already been developed under Carter. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) under Carter conducted a management campaign of harassment against union controllers. And 12 months before the government’s contract with PATCO was set to expire, Carter formed a “Management Strike Contingency Force” to prepare for a walkout–including the use of scabs. When President Carter signed the Staggers Rail Act into law, he proclaimed: “By stripping away needless and costly regulation in favor of marketplace forces wherever possible, this act will help assure a strong and healthy future for our nation’s railroads,” the president’s signing statement promised. “Consumers can be assured of improved railroads delivering their goods with dispatch.” With deregulation has come a loss of union membership as the industry changed over the last 30 years. The International Brotherhood of Teamsters, one of three unions who endorsed Reagan, pretty much controlled the interstate trucking industry in the U.S. prior to 1980. Before Carter signed the Motor Carrier Act of 1980 into law, price-fixing and regulated routes was as much as 75% higher than unregulated freight. Both the Teamsters Union and the American Trucking Associations strongly opposed deregulation and successfully headed off efforts to eliminate all economic controls. Supporting deregulation was a coalition of shippers, consumer advocates including Ralph Nader, and liberals such as Senator Edward Kennedy. Unable to stop Carter’s deregulatory move, the Teamsters saw their near-monopoly in the industry end. Despite the myth that Reagan is the one that devastated private-sector unions, no amount of so-called “union-busting” that Reagan allegedly did matches the amount of devastation that President Jimmy Carter did to unions by crushing their monopolies in the Air, Rail Telephone and Trucking industries. Though the narrative is a convenient one, it is misleading. According to Alfred Kahn, the ‘chief architect’ of airline deregulations stated years later: I have to concede that the competition that deregulation brought certainly was terribly, terribly hard on the airlines and their unions, who had heretofore enjoyed the benefits of protection from competition under regulation.

Everyone should run far, far away from anything Seth Morgan is connected with. Just ask Huber Heights residents.

Judi is right. Some of you better do your own digging on the Koch brothers and wise up to them before they destroy this country.

If Americans for Prosperity is a grassroots movement group…. Then I guess grassroots no longer means anything. Tea Parties are the biggest lie of all. So many people have been duped by the corporatist government.

Judi, Please research those evil Koch brothers on Wikipedia. What part of their philanthropy don’t you like? They want to spend their money on their special charities not provide it to the federal government for their waste and abuse. Buffet does it . Gates does it. Barbara Streisand does it. Why are they so evil?

Let me see if I understand what you are articulatng. State government workers are good and necessary. Anyone who understands the State of Ohio has an $8 Billion negative cash flow problem is bad and evil. Cut, tax or plant money trees. Choose, but choose wisely.

This is hardly a “grassroots” group! It is funded and backed by the Koch Brothers and their boatloads of money, to the detriment of the American people. They support the GOP in order to gain financially for all their gas, oil, coal and other polluting companies. They backed all the Repub governors who are tearing apart WI, PA, MO, MI and of course, OH.
