40th 'anniversary' of ALEC, the innocuous sounding American Legislative Executive Council at the Palmer House hotel in downtown Chicago on August 8th, 2013.
For love of greed.....they:
influence state governments and members of the national government, some of whom are also members of ALEC in favor of an extreme right-wing, pro-corporation, anti-popular agenda like....
cutting social security, extending sequester cuts that hurt the poor, elderly, minority, disadvantaged, and voiceless ( like Meals on Wheels for home-bound seniors, and Head Start programs for children ), promoting climate change denial, enacting stand your ground laws, and encouraging union-busting tactics like ending collective bargaining and 'right-to-work' laws, And, lest we forget, working for the passage of new voter ID laws, which would effectively disenfranchise, the poor, minorities, and the elderly.
In this year alone the group or its members, have sponsored 71 bills protecting corporations from being accountable for anyone's injury or death, 139 bills for the privatization of public education, and 104 bills to diminish or eliminate collective bargaining.
ALEC is mostly funded by the billionaire Koch brothers who also fund/funded the Tea Party.According to the Koch brothers the minimum wage should also be eliminated because " the minimum wage prevents people from starting their own businesses." So let's do away with the minimum wage and all so-called 'entitlement programs'. What they neglect to mention of course is that they - and there are quite a few others like them both in politics and out - are exceeding joyful at accepting government subsidies for their businesses that run into the millions of dollars.

Birmingham Against The Cuts Demonstration
“Clegg, Cameron, hear us say – MAKE THE GREEDY BANKERS PAY!” echoed through the centre of Birmingham’s streets today as up to 1500 hundred trade unionists, students and community groups marched against the proposed CON-DEM cuts.
Despite obstruction from the ConDem council the demonstration gathered at Birmingham Cathedral and marched through the main shopping streets. As the march reached a branch of Barclays protestors stopped and chanted ‘pay your taxes’. As they reached each of Philip Green’s shops the chant was repeated. BHS shut their doors.
At the same time as the march UKuncut protestors were targetting a number of shops for not paying tax.
The demonstration was attended by activists from all of the major trade unions in the city, including UNISON, GMB, CYWU, UNITE, NUT, UNITE, UCU, NASUWT, PCS, CWU as well as campaigns such as BARAC (Black Activist Rising Against Cuts), DPAC (Disabled People Against the Cuts), UK UNCUT, community choirs and residents associations.
Graeme Horn, joint Branch Secretary of Birmingham UNISON Branch said “This is a great turn out and will give heart to activists campaigning for a YES vote in the forthcoming strike ballot of workers in Birmingham City Council.”
On Tuesday the 1st March Birmingham City Council intend to set a budget making £212 million of cuts, the first of a £320 million cuts package. This will mean a wholesale attack on the most vulnerable in our city, the closure of many services and job cuts of over 7,000 council workers.
Campaigners talked of making it as difficult as possible for the council to pass the budget, which went down very well with the crowd. Birmingham Against the Cuts is calling for a blockade of the council meeting from 2pm.
This illustrates the strength of feeling for stepping up the action to defend jobs and services in the run up to the massive TUC demonstration in London on the 26th March. It is clear no matter what happens in the council chamber on Tuesday, the protest on Saturday showed the determination to resist every cut.
Last week 43 people met at a meeting called by Cotteridge Against the Cuts to resist the closure of the Neighbourhood Office and Cotteridge Church Day Centre. In Kings Heath 90 people met to discuss organising to save Kingsheath Library. In another meeting 50 people attended a BARAC meeting at the Afro-Caribbean Centre.
