What he calls "reform" I call a organized, systematic plan to destroy the union movement in America. In Wisconsin it was pr oven that the strings are being pulled by the Koch brothers and their ilk. Their goal is to completely cut off major PAC funding for the Democratic party while leaving Republican funding alone. List of Major PAC funding from OpenSecrets.Org | PAC | Type | Amount | | U.S.Chamber of Commerce | Conservative | $32,851,997 | | American Action Network | Conservative | $26,088,031 | | American Crossroads | Conservative | $21,553,277 | | Crossroads Grassroots Policy Strategies | Conservative | $17,122,466 | | Service Employees International Union | Liberal | $15,952,331 | | American Federation of St / Cnty / Munic Employees | Liberal | $13,185,800 | | National Education Assn | Liberal | $10,245,561 | | American Future Fund | Conservative | $9,599,806 | | Americans for Job Security | Conservative | $8,991,209 | | National Assn of Realtors | Both | $8,890,737 | | National Rifle Assn | Conservative | $8,351,636 | | Club for Growth | Conservative | $8,240,060 | | 60 plus Assn | Conservative | $7,096,125 | | America’s Families First Action Fund | Liberal | $5,878,743 | | League of Conservation Voters | Liberal | $5,496,070 |
As you can clearly see out of the top 16 PACs, 10 are Conservative, 5 are liberal, one is bi-partisan. By eliminating the unions, the Republicans will have cut the legs off of Democratic funding. Sounds very fascist to me. |

Fascist, indeed. It is always the goal of conservatives to have business and government intertwined. For conservatives government should serve to protect business, not people. One of the key differences between conservatives and liberals.
