Just a question for kos and Laura Clawson. I love Laura's writing on labor issues, so I find it surprising (and disappointing) that the Daily Kos labor beat writer hasn't penned even a single piece, as far as I can determine, on the what is likely the biggest issue facing unions and U.S. workers now and for decades to come: TPP/FastTrack.
And before anyone offers up the "We-haven't-seen-it-so-we-can't-have-an-informed-opinion-on-it" claptrap, plenty of discussion of not only the agreement, itself, but of the process that will ultimately generate the agreement and its approval/failure, is already taking place in the diaries, in MB's front page discussions, and elsewhere on the web.
This is a highly relevant issue to the future of the labor movement in this country and to any agreement's possible effects on our massive income inequality chasm.
I also find it puzzling that not one front-page piece has asked where our 2016 frontrunner stands on this issue.
Is there a reason for this silence from the Daily Kos labor writer?
By the way, thanks to Meteor Blades for bringing the subject up on the front page. But shouldn't this be the purview of the labor writer since it's a prominent labor issue?
