At Your Expense

Part II: Mike Woliansky and Sadrah Schadel were punk rockers with a vision to save the world one vegan meat product at a time. No Evil Foods is sold as an activist brand with a mission, but their socialist-themed branding and co-opting of leftist rhetoric can’t cover up their union busting and treatment of workers as disposable. So how did this “progressive” company come to exploit their employees just like any other cutthroat capitalists? In this episode we speak with union organizers and former No Evil Foods employees Jon, Meagan and Josh about their experiences with the company and its union busting tactics. Even further proving their contempt for their employees, just weeks after this episode was recorded No Evil Foods laid off their entire production staff without warning or severance.

The For the People Act (HR-1) is being sold to you as voting expansion, but with a catch: You can only ever vote Democrat or Republican from now on. We deep dive this federal bill and also check in on TX Senate Bill 7, the most Texan voter suppression bill y’all done seen yet.

Shane of the Anarcho Rifle Association joins us to discuss cops and unions. We examine policing as a tool for repressing social movements, their increasing militarization, reform vs. abolition (alternatives to police as they operate now), and the absurd union busting tactics deployed against workers in Bessemer, Alabama in the recent vote to unionize their Amazon warehouse.

We examine why Biden's child cages are supposedly more humane than Trump's, wonder how veterans are still being deported, and find out more about the real "Jim Eagle."

This episode was recorded Feb. 17th during the weeklong power outages in Texas. Manny from AllCap Podcast joins us to discuss.

We talk about the Trump impeachment that went nowhere, rehash the Capitol riots, and discuss the future prospects of the People's Party. We have our friend Mal on as our first guest.
