Fear is Why Workers in Red States Vote Against Their Economic Self-Interest


Fear is Why Workers in Red States Vote Against Their Economic Self-Interest

ROBERT REICH
WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 15, 2014
Last week’s massive spill of the toxic chemical MCHM into West Virginia’s Elk River illustrates another benefit to the business class of high unemployment, economic insecurity, and a safety-net shot through with holes. Not only are employees eager to accept whatever job they can get. They are also also unwilling to demand healthy and safe environments.

The spill was the region’s third major chemical accident in five years, coming after two investigations by the federal Chemical Safety Board in the Kanawha Valley, also known as “Chemical Valley,” and repeated recommendations from federal regulators and environmental advocates that the state embrace tougher rules to better safeguard chemicals. 
No action was ever taken. State and local officials turned a deaf ear. The storage tank that leaked, owned by Freedom Industries, hadn’t been inspected for decades. 
But nobody complained. 
Not even now, with the toxins moving down river toward Cincinnati, can the residents of Charleston and the surrounding area be sure their drinking water is safe – partly because the government’s calculation for safe levels is based on a single study by the manufacturer of the toxic chemical, which was never published, and partly because the West Virginia American Water Company, which supplies the drinking water, is a for-profit corporation that may not want to highlight any lingering danger.  
So why wasn’t more done to prevent this, and why isn’t there more of any outcry even now? 
The answer isn’t hard to find. As Maya Nye, president of People Concerned About Chemical Safety, a citizen’s group formed after a 2008 explosion and fire killed workers at West Virginia’s Bayer CropScience plant in the state, explained to the New York Times: “We are so desperate for jobs in West Virginia we don’t want to do anything that pushes industry out.” 
Exactly.
I often heard the same refrain when I headed the U.S. Department of Labor. When we sought to impose a large fine on the Bridgestone-Firestone Tire Company for flagrantly disregarding workplace safety rules and causing workers at one of its plants in Oklahoma to be maimed and killed, for example, the community was solidly behind us – that is, until Bridgestone-Firestone threatened to close the plant if we didn’t back down.
The threat was enough to ignite a storm of opposition to the proposed penalty from the very workers and families we were trying to protect. (We didn’t back down and Bridgestone-Firestone didn’t carry out its threat, but the political fallout was intense.)
For years political scientists have wondered why so many working class and poor citizens of so-called “red” states vote against their economic self-interest. The usual explanation is that, for these voters, economic issues are trumped by social and cultural issues like guns, abortion, and race. 
I’m not so sure. The wages of production workers have been dropping for thirty years, adjusted for inflation, and their economic security has disappeared. Companies can and do shut down, sometimes literally overnight. A smaller share of working-age Americans hold jobs today than at any time in more than three decades. 
People are so desperate for jobs they don’t want to rock the boat. They don’t want rules and regulations enforced that might cost them their livelihoods. For them, a job is precious – sometimes even more precious than a safe workplace or safe drinking water. 
This is especially true in poorer regions of the country like West Virginia and through much of the South and rural America – so-called “red” states where the old working class has been voting Republican. Guns, abortion, and race are part of the explanation. But don’t overlook economic anxieties that translate into a willingness to vote for whatever it is that industry wants. 
This may explain why Republican officials who have been casting their votes against unions, against expanding Medicaid, against raising the minimum wage, against extended unemployment insurance, and against jobs bills that would put people to work, continue to be elected and re-elected. They obviously have the support of corporate patrons who want to keep unemployment high and workers insecure because a pliant working class helps their bottom lines. But they also, paradoxically, get the votes of many workers who are clinging so desperately to their jobs that they’re afraid of change and too cowed to make a ruckus.  
The best bulwark against corporate irresponsibility is a strong and growing middle class. But in order to summon the political will to achieve it, we have to overcome the timidity that flows from economic desperation. It’s a diabolical chicken-and-egg conundrum at a the core of American politics today.

Bernie Sanders Just Introduced a Bill to Raise the Minimum Wage to $15 an Hour



Bernie Sanders Just Introduced a Bill to Raise the Minimum Wage to $15 an Hour

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) is bringing the "fight for 15" to Capitol Hill. 
Flanked by high-ranking members of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, the Democratic presidential candidate on Wednesday introduced new legislation to more than double the federal minimum wage from $7.25, where it has remained since 2009, to $15 an hour by 2020.
"In the richest country on the face of the earth, no one who works 40 hours a week should be living in poverty," Sanders said, calling the current rate a "starvation wage." The proposal would also close "the loophole that allows employers to pay tipped workers a shamefully low $2.13 an hour," he said.
Reps. Keith Ellison (D-Minn.), Raul Grijalva (D-Ariz.) and Sheila Jackson-Lee (D-Texas) are the lead sponsors of a companion bill arriving in the House of Representatives. In the upper chamber, Sen. Ed Markey (D-Mass.) is co-sponsoring the legislation.

Closing tax loopholes



Closing tax loopholes
FRIEND, 
Last year, the top 25 hedge fund managers in the United States earned more than every kindergarten teacher in America combined.
Despite their huge paychecks, they pay a lower effective tax rate than most middle-class families. And thanks to a tax loophole that lets them pretend to run offshore reinsurance firms, they’re dodging even more taxes.
Reinsurance firms offer insurance to insurance companies. But more often than not, the companies that hedge fund managers set up are just a way to wash their money and avoid capital gains taxes. This enables hedge fund managers to pay minimal amounts in taxes on their huge earnings.


Hedge fund managers don’t need the additional benefit of funneling their earnings through an offshore reinsurance company so that they can further reduce their taxes. The IRS and the Treasury Department have a duty to preserve fairness in the tax code, and the hedge fund reinsurance loophole is plainly unfair. 


Former U.S. Rep. David Camp has a three-prong test that would prevent abuses and ensure tax fairness. Under that test, “an insurance company would have to have more than 50 percent of its gross receipts consist of insurance premiums, have insurance liabilities equal to 35 percent of its total assets, and be subject to tax as an insurer if it were a U.S. business.”
The IRS and the Treasury Department should do the fair thing for the American people by closing this loophole. It’s only fair that people making so much money should be playing by the same rules as the rest of us.

Stand Up to ALEC's Attacks on the EPA's Clean Power Plan



Stand Up to ALEC's Attacks on the EPA's Clean Power Plan
Tell your state senator to quit ALEC and support a strong Clean Power Plan that will empower California to use clean energy to meet EPA limits on global warming pollution from power plants.
ACTION ALERT
Tell Your State Senator to Stop Siding with ALEC and Support a Strong Clean Power Plan for California

Dear Friend,

Don't let Sen. Joel Anderson put the interests of the fossil fuel industry before the interests of people like you.

The American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC)—a special interest group infamous for spreading disinformation about climate science and clean energy—meets this week. On their agenda? A new attack on the first-ever national limits on global warming pollution from power plants—the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Clean Power Plan.

ALEC is pedaling another cut-and-paste bill that would prevent California from using renewable energy and energy efficiency to meet the Clean Power Plan goals. What else can we expect when politicians meet behind closed doors with lobbyists representing powerful fossil fuel and utility interests, such as Peabody Energy, Chevron, and American Electric Power?

Unfortunately, your state representative is a member of ALEC—we need your help to prevent Sen. Anderson from leaving California behind on global warming solutions.

Thanks in large part to internal documents leaked by whistleblowers, we know what happens behind the closed doors of ALEC meetings. And we fear your state senator will stand by ALEC's attacks because they signed onto a letter attempting to conceal ALEC's well-documented record of assailing climate science and clean energy.

Call on Sen. Anderson to quit ALEC now, and instead, support the creation of a strong state plan to maximize the use of renewable energy and energy efficiency under the EPA's Clean Power Plan. We need to remind state legislators that their job is to represent people like you, not fossil fuel and utility industry lobbyists.

Take Action
Sincerely,
David Anderson

Urge Congress to protect our public lands now!



Why stand apart, when we can rise together
Dear Friend,

Time is running out. If Congress fails to reauthorize and fully fund the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) before September 30, access to our favorite parks, forests, and trails could be affected.
Tell Congress to make funding for America's great outdoors a priority now!
The LWCF is our nation's best conservation program. For 50 years, it has helped protect iconic national parks like Yellowstone and the Grand Canyon, and has been used to make vital investments in local ballfields and neighborhood parks.
Unfortunately, over the years, much of the funding for this landmark program has been diverted to uses other than protecting public lands and waters. And in a recent op-ed, PERC-a group backed by the Koch brothers-called for an end to the LWCF, the privatization of our public lands, and for opening them up to private use-like drilling.1
The LWCF is under attack and desperately needs your help to survive.
Urge Congress to protect the program that has been key to protecting millions of acres of parks, wildlife refuges and green spaces across the nation.
Groups like PERC suggest that our national parks are impossible to maintain, but the LWCF is a budget-neutral program that uses funds from offshore oil and gas development fees. It's easy to see how this group with strong ties to the oil industry would stand to profit if Congress fails to reauthorize the LWCF. But you won't let that happen.
America would be nothing without its parks and public lands. That's why Congress must act to reauthorize and fully fund the LWCF for future generations. Send your message to Congress now!
In it together,
Courtney-Rose DantusSierraRise
