Welcome to Buster's Blog

Irregular commentary on whatever's on my mind -- politics, sports, current events, and life in general. After twenty years of writing business and community newsletters, fifteen years of fantasy baseball newsletters, and two years of email "columns", this is, I suppose, the inevitable result: the awful conceit that someone might actually care to read what I have to say. Posts may be added often, rarely, or never again. As always, my mood and motivation are unpredictable.

Tom Suddes on Right To Work (For Less)

Thomas Suddes is a professor of journalism at Ohio University, a former Ohio statehouse reporter, and is currently a columnist whose work appears in the Cleveland Plain Dealer, the Columbus Dispatch, the Dayton Daily News and the Springfield Sun News.  He is just about the only decent local opinion writer regularly published by my daily fish-wrap.  A couple zingers from his Sunday column:
____________________________________________________________

An outfit named Ohioans for Workplace Freedom wants voters to sign a petition to place a right-to-work constitutional amendment directly on Ohio's ballot.  Claiming that Right To Work is about workplace freedom is like calling a slave-owner a job creator.

The only workplace freedom that Right To Work cheerleaders want is bosses' freedom -- and the destruction of unions' independent political power.
