Words Matter

There are words that the 1 percent oligarchies do not want used by the wage slaves and the Have Nots. These words went through a kind of linguistic cleansing and then used against the ordinary person. Derogatory phrases like “working class,” “oligarchy,” “reserve army of labor plutocracy,” robber baron,” “ruling class,” “class warfare,” “Marx,” “Have Nots,” “Have Littles,” “living wage,” “sweat shops,” “Gilded Age,” “crony capitalism,” “social Darwinism,” “survival of the fittest.” It’s important to also understand the subliminal effect that these words has on our mental process, which occurs below the threshold of consciousness and how it can affect someone's mind without their being aware of it. If you hear a term enough times without giving consideration for what you’re actually hearing, you absorb it and repeat it not realizing you're propagating the enemy's message. These words or sayings were purposely excluded from print in many published material and solely excluded from talk show hosts. But, the wage slaves must have an understanding of this nomenclature, and begin using these terms in their everyday conversations with one another and if the person they are conversing with doesn’t know the term, it gives the speaker an opportunity to share their knowledge and history of the wage slave history. Once again, we must know ourselves (history) to be able to win this class and inequality war of our lives. These words were very powerful description of what was happening to the Have Nots in the second Civil War, was after the Civil War when the Haves and the Have Nots in the mines and the Bloody Fights on the railroads, steel mills, and in city streets and out on the great plains. This was a war to the death between the Haves and the Have Nots, a war class against class turning into what was called Two Nations. Now, could this be happening again, not only here, but worldwide? Looking at history, there is a lot of similarities with the Gilded Age. And the playbook has already been written in blood. To understand the playbook you must understand the words and who is using them.

Time for an Offense

There are three phases of a general strike and unions must plan for one. Those three phases are: 1. general strike in an industry 2. general strike in a community 3. general national strike We need to move away from being on the defensive and move toward a good offensive. The American Federal of Labor (AFL) could not have held a general strike if it wanted to because they had thousands of different contracts that expired at different times of the year. This was done deliberately so that there is no consolidation of power for a general strike. Also, nowadays, there is no law agency that will support labor, except the National Labor Relations Board (NLBR), which has been under attack and in decline for years. This leaves the burden of change up to unions, and unless unions work together, little will change. We essentially have a combination of job trusts, which are not as strong as contracts, and the courts can break easily because the NLBR will be further weakened and essentially elim...

If Gompers Could Do It, We Can Do It

Labor must vote for the person who will support and vote for labor’s best interests. And in turn, labor members have to support those who are running for office who support labor unions and vote down ballots. Voting down ballot gives the person at the top more power to do what’s best for us. This includes elections for city, county and state positions, as well. If you think a four day work week is wishful thinking, remember workers had to fight for an eight-hour work day and a five-day work week. We, labor members and supporters, need to find people who can fight and win. We need to clean the Congress and Senate of the old Democratic guard who have voted repeatedly to hold the working class back while enriching themselves. This would rebuild solidarity in a magnitude greater than anything either party has seen or offered in the last fifty years. If we can bring about the change in the ruling class we can improve all of our lives. This would be the start of the end of the tyranny of the...

Shock Troops

Gerrymandering is the only legal form of voter theft. Workers, our long range plans should involve 1. crushing Citizens United; and 2. getting rid of the Electoral College. We have been trying to get rid of the electoral college since 1876, and we are still waiting for the revolt. Our unions need to start training some members to be our shock troops and if all unions would do this and work with our local Labor Councils, it would be a good start. Our members need to know our labor laws, local laws, and learn how to protest in the streets if necessary. The antiunion people like Trump, Musk and his billionaire friends work together to crush the working people and convince workers they’re doing them a favor and then use them as shock troops against unions and their workers. All union and nonunion working people must come together and work together to protect what we have now. Labor Councils have retired union members and they could work together to prepare to bring the movement forward....
