Right to work is just a slogan. Its "At will employment" Everyone has known since the beginning its true intent. Its why I have always heard it called the 'right to fire'

They are two distinct things. Right to work is the right to work without being required to pay anything to a union. At will employment is the ability to fire you for any reason as long as it isn't a reason related to be a protected class.

Citizens United is actively damaging to the lives of regular citizens, brought to you by the same folks who used the PATRIOT act to snoop on every conversation and build secret dungeon prisons all over the world. These are also the same people who use the National Socialist German Workers' Party as an example of socialism not working, it’s a conservative trait to fix proud sounding names to piles of horseshit and act like you’re wrong for reacting to the smell.
