Pick A Side

There is no in between in this class warfare. You are either with the unions or against; you can’t be whatever’s convenient for your self-interest. The exploitation of the proletarians by the oligarchies, who are anti-union GOP capitalists, will lead to the proletarians’ demise. Even though some companies are slow walking the increase in minimum wage hoping that the proletarians will let down their demands for the $15 to $18 an hour. Capitalists should look at Lincoln’s statement on May 19, 1856 when he said, “Be not deceived. Revolutions do not go backward.” For the proletariats to understand their opponents better, I would suggest you read, The Prince, written by Machiavelli for the Haves on how to hold onto power. The Haves with their arrogant opulence, its police, its courts—up to the Supreme Court, and its churches, claims of morality, law and order. These all secures the Haves’ status quo. But, the power of the Have Nots rests with their numbers. It has been said that the Haves, living under the nightmare of possible threats to their possessions and who are always faced with the question of when do we sleep; while the nightmare of the Have Nots is where do we sleep and when do we eat? In between the Haves and the Have Nots is a new group of the Used to Haves, who have now lost what little they had. This is sort of like a person who has lost their sight, but they remember what it was like to see and now cannot see and become bitter at the loss of their sight. In some cases, when this group finally figures out that it is not the government or president for their plight and realize that it is the Haves that that are to blame. When these people realize what happened to them they will grow the ranks of the Have Nots and Have Littles, and then we will be closer to the 99 percent. Right now there is still a gap between the 47 percent and the rest of us. The last group to join the Have Nots is the Have Littles or Want Mores. This is what is left of the diminished Middle Class. They are torn between upholding the status quo to protect the little they still have, yet wanting change so they can get more. They become split personalities. They want a safe way where they can profit by change and not risk losing the little they are holding onto. The proletariat wage slaves have got to think about how wars are won. You are either all in or all out, on one side or the other. There is no in between for you will be smashed by both sides if you are caught between the two forces coming together to battle. The winning side will be the proletariats because our numbers outnumber the oligarchies’.

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...

Prepare for the onslaught

We must support whoever will protect workers, their pensions and health care, which are usually Democrats. If California loses the Democratic majority in its elected politicians, we will be the next Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio or Florida. If we lose more Democrats at the federal government level it will be even worse for the working people. The workers must put their feet on the ground and not be intimidated or embarrassed to fight for thier rights. This is now class warfare. The corporations want a low-wage, uneducated class of workers - the ones we used to call the 'middle class.'  And don't think our government will protect us. There is ample proof in our labor history to show that the government used force against its own people. What happened in Tunsia and Egypt would never have been allowed here. The government and corporations have in the past used our National Guard (remember Kent State), U.S. troops (the 1932 Bonus March) and private mercenaries, such as the Baldwi...
