David Delk on Oregon tax measures; Lisa Dodson on the class consciousness of middle managers

What's the class consciousness of middle management?  Who really has the power to subvert our unfair economy?

 
In the first half of the show we talk with local union member activist and campaign superstar David Delk, member of AFSCME Local 3135, about what Oregon ballot Measures 66 and 67 mean for working people and why he's volunteering his time to make sure they pass.
 
Then in the second half of the show we talk with author and professor Lisa Dodson who interviewed hundreds of middle-income middle managers and professionals about the working people whose lives they control.  Her new book is called The Moral Underground: How Ordinary Americans Subvert an Unfair Economy.
