for those wondering about #Wisconsin, two words: #LABOR #UNIONS
hereโs tangential mini-thread i wrote about how Wisconsin was one of the big stories of 2011 during the #ArabSpring and how without Winconsinโs #Walkerville, there would have never been a #Bloombergville nor an #OccupyWallStreet.

read the TL;DR on Wisconsin's 2011 protests
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2011_Wisconsin_protestsalthough the MSM mostly acknowledged the #Walkerville summer encampments created by the #Teamsters in June of that year, i actually had been news curating the Wisconsin protests from February because Michigan activists knew i'd been curating #ArabSpring news for over a month.

what does it have to do with your #unemployment benefits?
