 | | Despite their minor policy differences, they have been united for decades on a campaign to shift income from poor and working people to the wealthy, under such guises as “competitiveness” or devolution of the federal government. |  | | His statements deflected attention from the real class war being waged by the tag team of big business and hard-right conservatives. |  | | In 1978, after the nation’s biggest corporations had ganged up to defeat a moderate, pro-union labor law reform bill, then United Auto Workers President Douglas Fraser complained about a “one-sided class war” being waged against workers in the United States. |

| | The Guerre de Hollande (the Dutch War) - History Forum |
 | | The war of Devolution was actually the war of 1667-1668, which the Dutch-English-Swedish alliance had thwarted, and that probably was one of the main reasons for the war. |  | | The only information I knew about this war was that England assisted France which i thought was odd, it is also known as the 3rd Anglo-Dutch war at times, Louis XIV claimed Holland somehow threw his wife's lineage, and it is also known as the war of Devolution. |  | | Moreover, it defined the diplomacy and wars of the following decades: the Republic, the Holy Roman Empire, Spain, England, all engaged in alliances against France, from the Nine Years War to the War of the Spanish Succession. |

 | | On his deathbed, Louis confessed to his young successor that he had "loved war too much." Well over half his reign witnessed major armed conflicts, including the War of Devolution (1667-1668), the Dutch War (1672-1678), the War of the Grand Alliance (1688-1697), and the War of the Spanish Succession (1701-1714). |  | | So adamant was he to inspect his troops that one courtier called him "the king of reviews." He was served by the capable although brutal war minister, the marquis de Louvois, who, along with his father and previous war minister Michel Le Tellier, did much to rationalize French administration and supply. |  | | Immensely concerned with his army, Louis concentrated on the details of administration, drill, and siege warfare. |
