Liked regulatory state article

Thank you for that stunning article on the regulatory state, finally putting the lie to the constant assertion by the capitalist media that “Socialism=Big Government.”
My concern is with the recent Boeing concession contract. The threat by the bosses to move everything somewhere else if they don’t get what they want is a devastating prospect for working folks. Can you please draw for readers a possible scenario in which we, the working class, win in a fight like that?

Requests another subscription

Your newspaper is the only one that I read. I do not read those of the mainstream media, because I doubt the veracity of their publications. I have always looked forward to receiving your issues. I have always received the paper without censorship. Please, may I request another subscription.

‘No struggle, no progress’

I initially subscribed a year ago. You offer important national as well as international news to those interested in knowing what’s taking place, especially to individuals who like myself find themselves trapped in certain unfortunate circumstances where those so-called “Correctional Officers” seem to do everything possible to deprive the incarcerated of his/her right to education, freedom of the press and intellectual progress. I always share it with other prisoners. I personally understand the huge importance of knowledge, self-respect, determination, perseverance, unity and self-worth. Where there is no struggle, there will never be any progress.
