A skeptical leftist's, or post-capitalist's, or eco-socialist's blog, including skepticism about leftism (and related things under other labels), but even more about other issues of politics. Free of duopoly and minor party ties. Also, a skeptical look at Gnu Atheism, religion, social sciences, more.
Note: Labels can help describe people but should never be used to pin them to an anthill.

D/FW air traffic controller suing FAA
$1 mil is too low, in my opinion
Anne Whiteman has filed a $1 million whistleblower claim against the Federal Aviation Administration.
Whiteman has battled the FAA for nearly a decade over its mishandling of air traffic control problems, followed by cover-ups of said problems, at D/FW International Airport.
The main expense listed in her filing is $720K in lost wages due to not getting promotions, etc.
Next is $250K for total jaw replacement. That’s incredible that TMJ or whatever became so severe over a decade of FAA harassment to necessitate that much in surgery.
