But, in this flood of publishing and republishing, very little ever gets said about what exactly Chomsky stands for, his ...             "They're Bankrupting Us!": And 20 Other Myths about Unions Bill Fletcher Jr Beacon Press, 2012 From Wisconsin to Washington, DC, the claims are made: unions are responsible for budget deficits, and their members are overpaid and enjoy cushy benefits.

It seems easier to classify them by what they don't want, namely, the organizations of the State, and to identify them with rioting and protest rather than with any coherent ideology. But with demonstrations like those against the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund being blamed on anarchists, it is clear that an explanation of what they do stand for is long overdue.
