Vote or Lose it All

The consequences of losing your county government to anti-government maga people is that, one: they don’t like or want unions in government jobs; they want to control all of the county jobs, such as the elections department, so they can get their hands on your ballots. They want to control the county school boards and the county school superintendent’s office and dedicate what is taught. They also want to control of the Shasta County District Attorney’s office and the Health Department. How can this be done? One way is just by buying the County supervisors with lots of money from outside our county. In Shasta County’s case, it was and is out of state money, which supported a recall of three supervisors, which were all Republicans members, but were not maga trump people. Two of these supervisors were not recalled, but have vowed not to run again and one was recalled, giving the maga supervisors a majority vote of three to two vote to fire the County’s Health Officer, and they will not quit with that win. They want to destroy Shasta County’s government. Our Five Counties Council unions fought this with people and money in supporting the supervisors who were being recalled, but lost because there wasn’t enough money to counter the unlimited money coming in from outside the County. This is a hard thing for union labor people to use their money to try to defend Republicans, but the alternative left the Five Counties Council no choice, unfortunately we lost, but all county workers’ union benefits are in danger as a result of this loss. I wonder how many of these workers realize that or voted against their own self-interest? All of this is occurring in our Northern California County right now and I am sure the same thing is happening in other small counties across the USA. So, the real fight is who will control the ballot boxes and voting machines for those who do will win through corruption. So, unions members and all working people must get out and vote to stop this from happening. The anti-worker GOP maga led assault is on the working-class people, not just to control the government. If they, the gop maga people, are counting the votes, we lose. Vet the candidates you want to vote for. Several are saying they’re sponsored by the Liberty committee, that is a tell that they are with the maga-gop group. One Cottonwood candidate, who is running as a Liberty candidate, says in one of his television advertisements that he will not raises our taxes. He’s either ignorant or is hoping you are.

May Day 2028 or Sooner

Unions’ long game is to get all union contracts to expire on the same day nationwide. The United Auto Workers combines contracts ends on April 28, 2028. This could then result in a mass national strike starting on May Day beeginning that year. This could then put enormous pressure on employers, but also on lawmakers. It’s the muscle and sweat of the workers that keeps this country great, not the individual company or corporations. This May Day strike would be the time to change the workers’ world for the better by negotiating for a 32-hour week with the same pay, and the U.S. adopts a healthcare for all with no out of pocket costs. This would also help the employers as they would no longer have to provide healthcare. By striking, the UAW won same pay for new workers, all UAW contracts will end on the same date, a 25-percent pay increase, a cost of living adjustments, a guaranteed right to strike over potential plant closures, and also the right to vote to unionize through the card che

Standing At The Precipice

Unions do not do well in a dictatorship because unions are the first thing dictators destroy, and rest assured the workers won’t be allowed to hit the streets in protest. If Trump is elected he will invoke the Insurrection Act and send troops into the cities to crush them and send a message that he will terminate and dissent. They will eliminate unions and unionized workers. We are standing at the precipice and it's up to us to fight the fall into a dictatorship. By voting for the GOP, maga people and anyone else will be able to keep their guns until Trump says, “No.” By then, he will have already amassed an Army of foot soldiers in place to take over the government jobs. They will be Trump’s people and they will do whatever he tells them to do. The only way this can be stopped is for all unions and their members to put aside their political and social differences and stand strong for democracy, unions, workers rights and workers safety. This is not a drill. It will happen just loo

“Workampers” are the New IWW Wobblies

We now have another organization that will enhance the wage pollution for the wage slaves. Walmart started the wage pollution and then temporary agencies, which offer no healthcare or pensions, just temporary low wages. Now we have the online U.S. retail business, which did $197 billion in 2011. The workforce that does the work in these hundreds of warehouses are called “workampers.” Amalgamated advertises positions on websites that workampers frequent. This is just a modern version of what the old Wobblies had to do in the 1920s and ‘30s; only then, instead, of traveling from place to place living in trailers and motorhomes they rode railroad freight cars and camped in hobo camps called the Jungle, which we still have. The reason that the warehouse owners like workampers is they are temporary and will not stay year round that way by not staying in one place the workers do not have time to make friends, which could start unions. This is an old way to keep unions out for if people w
