Now is the time for the working people who are raising families, who are the drivers of the so-called capitalist system that, in turn, turns workers into slaves.
It is time for healthcare with no out of pocket expenses, child care, sick days, living wages and a four-day for week. If you think this is asking a lot, take a look at other countries. Belgium, Australia, Canada, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Iceland, Ireland, Japan, Lithuania, Netherlands, New Zealand, Scotland, Spain, Sweden, United Arab Emirates, and UK all have or testing having these benefits. If we’re so great, why are we so far behind?
Greed.
The very rich corporatists call those of us who advocate for these benefits “socialists” or “dreamers” and those workers with no self-awareness or interest to look beyond the term, chime in with the name calling and go further by associating it with “communists.”
Instead of running from the word “Socialist,” we should not care about childish name calling and embrace it proudly, instead. It’s time we got half of the pie instead of the crumbs.
As Carl Jung wrote, There is no coming to consciousness without pain.”
We all need to be represented by unions even the retired. All voters should be represented by a union. Physicians and lawyers and the like have “associations,” which is a fancy word for union.
The Biden Administration is making progress, but he needs help. We have elected officials who can lead this fight, we just need them to reject corporate money and fight for the people. Embrace the fact that the filthy rich would have nothing without the workers, also because as the 99 percent we make the most purchases.
There’s a reason Nordic countries are considered the happiest. They treat their workers the best and with respect.
The U.S. workers working situation will never change until we make them. Before greed took over, the U.S. workers could have one spouse work, afford to buy a home and a nice car and provide for their families. Look at our homeless population today and tell me our system isn’t out of whack.
In 2026 unions worldwide must educate and expand their memberships or face certain death. We need to educate our workers to understand that the republican party does not care about, does not deserve their support or votes and only cares about the billionaires. The GOP is their enemy and not their friends. The GOP and billionaires are the workers’ enemy. They want the workers’ sweat and blood for as cheap as they can get it. These greedy people and their insatiable appetite for more leaving us with much less will not stop until we’re forced to work for scraps and fighting each other for the pittance. They will not invite you to golf with them or go hunting or to dinner with them. In fact, they are always in pursuit of ways to destroy our unions and the way of life we’ve obtain by being union. One way they are doing this is to use the court system, especially the lop-sided Supreme Court, to take away our union rights and to get more states to vote for The Right to Work, which leaves work...
