Labor Day and the Spirit of Joe Hill
Joe Hill, workers' martyr, was executed by firing squad nearly a century ago, but his message lives on: 'Don't mourn – organise!'
by Clancy Sigal
l eat, bye and bye,
In that glorious land above the sky;
Work and pray, live on hay,
You'll get pie in the sky when you die
– "The Preacher and the Slave", a parody hymn written by rebel singer and labour icon Joe Hill
Anyone who is a fan of Billy Bragg, as I am, or Bruce Springsteen, Bob Dylan, Pete Seeger, Woody Guthrie or the sixties protest singer Phil Ochs knows that radical America's greatest songwriter-educator Joe Hill is still alive in the young-in-heart on this besieged Labor Day. [IWW hero Joe Hill.] IWW hero Joe Hill.
Joe, a Swedish immigrant and wandering troubadour-troublemaker, was a "Wobbly", an agitating member of the One Big Union, the red flag International Workers of the World, a harum-scarum, mad-as-hell, happy-in-fellowship bunch of hoboes and gypsy workingmen who scared the pants off business leaders, pious church-goers, police chiefs, governors and all right-thinking citizens in the early part of the last century.
As a just published, terrific biography of Hill, The Man Who Never Died, by William Adler, makes clear yet again, Joe Hillström (né Joel Hägglund, his birth name) was framed on a murder charge in Salt Lake City, Utah, strapped into a chair and shot by a firing squad.

GE’s Immelt Advises President on Jobs and Competiveness, Exports Jobs and Technology to China | Common Dreams

snip from article:
WASHINGTON - August 24 - Congressman Dennis Kucinich (D-OH) today called upon General Electric’s Chairman and CEO, Jeffrey Immelt to resign from his position as head of the President’s Council on Jobs and Competitiveness. Kucinich’s statement came in response to news reports that, in exchange for short-term profit, GE is sending advanced technology to China that was originally created by NASA.
"If he does not resign, the White House should remove him," Kucinich said.
“As 14 million Americans struggle with unemployment, General Electric, under Mr. Immelt’s leadership, is exporting highly-sophisticated technology to the Chinese in order to book short-term profits for GE. GE strives mightily to avoid paying federal income taxes, but goes ‘all in’ on a deal to transfer U.S. government-subsidized technology to the Chinese. Jeffrey Immelt has a conflict of interest. He cannot ethically advise the President on how to create American jobs and promote American competiveness, while at the same time leading a company that is exporting American technology and, along with it, American jobs,” said Kucinich.
A report in Monday’s Washington Post described the transfer of a virtual reality display system for airplane cockpits that GE is transferring to the Chinese as part of its joint venture with a Chinese state-owned company. The display system GE is transferring was originally developed using Synthetic Vision technology created by NASA in partnership with private industry. NASA has committed millions of dollars to pursue development of synthetic vision systems.

Kenneth Gladney Files Civil Suit Against SEIU Members Acquitted in Criminal Trial - St. Louis News - Daily RFT
Kenneth Gladney Files Civil Suit Against SEIU Members Acquitted in Criminal Trial - St. Louis News - Daily RFT

: Quick: What do the Kenneth Gladney and O.J. Simspon sagas have in common?
1. It seems they won't EVER go away.
2. They both hinge on a civil suit after acquittals during criminal trials.
Yes, last month prosecutors failed to get a jury to convict two members of the SEIU union accused of beating up Kenneth Gladney, a vendor of Tea Party memorabilia, at a town hall meeting in 2009. But Gladney isn't giving up.
In a civil suit filed Friday in St. Louis County Circuit Court, Gladney blames SEIU members Elston McCowan and Perry Molens for injuries to his head, neck, shoulders, arms, face and back, in addition to mental anguish. He is seeking at least $50,000 in damages and also names as a defendant the president of the Service Employees International Union.
According to Gladney, the union "ordered, encouraged, and arranged McCowan and Molens to appear ... to harass, abuse and beat those individuals who held political views."
Gladney's attorney, Matthew Hearnes, believes it will be easier to win a judgment in civil court. And, hey, it worked for the family of Nicole Brown. Still, we think Hearnes has his work cut out for him.

looks like guy trying to get something for nothing. no medical records? how very nice. hope they do not pick me for court for such a suit
