SF CHRON: When the Class War Goes Local


DIGG this post from David Sirota: Beware - the class war may be coming to a town near you.

What happens when the class war comes to your little town? That's what I explore in my new column for the San Francisco Chronicle today. You can read it here. Over the last week, we here in the rural state of Montana were the target of an intense onslaught by conservative class warriors, both in the state legislature and at a glitzy international economic summit in Butte - the most unglitzy, hard-scrabble, salt-of-the-earth places in America. And as the column says, you can bet what happened here could happen anywhere.

David Sirota is a veteran political strategist and author of Hostile Takeover, a New York Times bestseller about the corruption of both political parties.
