Inequality: Worldwide Scourge

Inequality is the scourge of the U.S. and the world. Just ask French economist Thomas Piketty, or U.S. Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen or many intelligent business leaders, and they will tell you that inequality is at its highest in a hundred years. Inequality is the Ebola of the capitalist system, which bleeds out the 99 percent so the 1 percent can continue to make its obscene profits. Just like Ebola, the capitalist system and its inequality is spreading worldwide and it is or will affect everyone if not stopped. When the proletarians have no money to buy the services and goods that the wage slaves produce then the unemployment grows, which puts a larger burden on government. The government has less money because there are fewer taxpayers at every level. Inequality is a black hole, which will get deeper and larger until it sucks all and everyone into it bringing along with it frustrations, fear and uncertainty, and this is where the breeding grounds are created for the groups like the Islamic State (ISIS or ISISL), Al Qaeda, the Ku Klux Klan and other fringe hate groups that reign with terror. The common core that ultimately leads disenfranchised people to these hate groups is inequality. However, inequality is the one thing the 99 percent can change by forcing the money hoarders to part with some of their cash and this is done by forcing a $15 to $18 an hour minimum wage, close all the loopholes that allow them to bank offshore like Ireland did, make the 1 percent and all the corporations pay their fair share in government taxes, provide for a free education, fix our broken healthcare system to a single payer system, and provide pensions. The wage slaves must stay connected worldwide, sharing their Intel and their strategies, which, if done thoroughly and consistently, will make it hard for the greedy 1 percent to run an undeveloped country to rape and pillage the country’s workers with their low wage-unsafe work conditions, or to hide their money. The wage slaves must expose and chase the rich wherever they go. The proletariats now have new technology and should use every aspect of it, even small drones at protests for Intel on the law enforcement and build clearinghouses or databases on what is working and what is not working. Another thing to keep the 1 percent off balance would be to change leaders quickly and often, and mix up the genders of the leaders. For most law enforcement agencies are led by men who think alike. There are not many female 1 percent leaders or law enforcement leaders so their strategies and tactics would work because it would be a foreign concept to most of the male-centered thinking. Also, there is no such thing as a secret any more. Spies and infiltrators is a common thing so now the tactics should focus on speed to hit and run, the old guerilla warfare, examine their weaknesses and devise ways to capitalize on them, move place to place, have many plans, be flexible to change up the plans if need be to meet the demands of the present situation. Lastly, is education about our history, have many plans; keep in mind the 1 percent are listening so use this knowledge to your advantage (as outlines in the Art of War). Gaining a minimum wage of at least $15 to $18 an hour [which has proven successful by The Container Store, which pays its employees $50,000 a year and is thriving] will be a big victory in the states for turning back the scourge of inequality.

Now is the Time to Prepare

I hope that I am wrong, but what I see at this time is our unions are going to be in the fight of their existence. This is the most perilous time of our life. The life we had is threatened like never before. Unions are the largest organized group of people who can save our country if things keep going the way they are heading at this time. We need to all stand together for power, but we each must prepare and plan to take care of ourselves and our families. We can fight the big fight and not be distracted by worry about things that can and should already be taken care of. For instance, stashing at least one month’s pay and at least a month or even a year’s worth of food, whether the food is staples (pasta, rice, canned goods) and meat or chicken in the freezer. Keep your vehicles' tanks full and if possible a gas can full. It’s in your best interest to also save money for house or rent payments plus extra. This is not new thinking for us old trade workers who had to prepare when...

We Are the Power

Looks like there is hope for the union workers and our country for the union people who believed Trump’s lies, who now know that he was just full of bullshitting all of you. He said the he would bring more work to this country, but took away money from job projects, and the ones that were too late to stop, Trump put his name on it and is taking credit for the work done. Trump is not a union supporter and the people who work for him do not support unions either because they all get their money from big corporations, who are notoriously anti-union. The entire GOP is bought and paid for by large corporations, such as Home Depot, Walmart, Chamber of Commerce and many other nonunion selfish companies. We all have a chance to change things and take it all back if we dare by voting blue in the mid-term elections. If we vote for things that are what we really need like healthcare, good pensions, living wages, voting rights, more affordable housing, and rent control. In other words, let’s get a...

They'll Be Coming For All Of Us

Yes, they are coming for us. Workers need to have one another’s backs because no one else will. Neither the broader labor movement nor the Democratic party are prepared to meet the urgency of this moment. So it’s going to fall upon the rest of us to mount a real resistance against Trump’s authoritarian takeover. We’re going to have to get our hands dirty. I don’t care if you have a good, well-paying union job and you are in the middle class now—if you see a worker being dragged out of his workplace regardless of how skilled the job and potentially taken to another country, you should be ready to be there for that worker. When I.C.E. shows up, gather around and shame them into leaving. It has worked in other places. America is sleep walking into authoritarianism, and if there’s anyone out there who is a member of a labor union that is safe—at this point— and doesn’t think this applies to them. Understand that they just haven’t gotten to you yet. They’re coming for all of us. There are ...
