The former U.S. Secretary of Labor and Berkeley’s current Chancellor’s Professor of Public Policy is fed up with money playing a role in politics, gosh-darn it! And he’s taken to Twitter to express his righteous indignation:
CEOs have no right to spend shareholder money on politics without disclosing to whom it's going & giving shareholders a chance to opt out.

2012 will go down in history as the year we lost our democracy to big money. Will 2013 be the year we take it back?

America suffers, as MLK said, not from the "actions of the bad people but the appalling silence and indifference of the good people." Act.

Obviously, Robert, you’re still sore about Citizens United (just like your buddies Peter Fonda, Ben, and Jerry). Stomp that foot! Maybe AFL-CIO president Richard Trumka will join you in your tantrum; he, too, thinks money’s “dangerous to democracy.” ::cough::
Reich found some support among fellow waaaaaahmbulance passengers:
Fuck yeah! RT @RBReich: 2012 will go down in history as the year we lost our democracy to big money. Will 2013 be the year we take it back?

One lefty was willing to acknowledge something Reich did not:
@RBReich I agree 100%, but this is what the GOP say about the union support Dems receive? How can we make your argument and counter theirs?
— J P (@histino) July 9, 2012
Many conservatives echoed this point, countering Reich’s arguments by pointing out his hypocrisy when it comes to unions’ financial contributions.
@RBReich You would be referring to the heads of the labor unions, wouldn't you?

@RBReich Do Union Leaders have the same responsibilities as CEO's to disclose to its member's where dues are spent on politics?

Reich isn’t really in a position to take up the mantle of Crusader for Political Justice.

@SooperMexican translated @RBReich "our big $ $oros is going to be nearly matched for a change"

@RBReich You would be referring to George Soros and other Democrat party moneybags, wouldn't you?

Hopefully this November, Reich’s tears will be genuine:
@RBReich 2012 will actually be the year that the Tea Party will save the country from Obama and the communists (Democrats) in Congress.

Twitter is moving ahead with its plans for an initial public offering, but don’t tell anyone you heard it from us. In a tweet, Twitter noted that it had filed its submission confidentially.
http://twitter.com/#!/max_read/status/378262938890416128No, read the tweet.
http://twitter.com/#!/Bensign/status/378262514959532033 http://twitter.com/#!/SarahARosser/status/378263487774195712Facebook went public last May, with high rollers like 2.3 percent owner Bono suddenly finding himself with $1.5 billion worth of Facebook stock. Twitter, on the other hand, is valued at around $10 billion total.
It’s the most exciting day in Twitter’s seven-year history — now get back to work. There are conservatives in Twitter Gulag who need their gruel.
