Be On The Winning Team

The people like to be winners, but don’t like being on a losing team. It’s this way in sports and also politics. At this time it is the Democrats against the cult of Trump and the whipped GOP. The Democrats are winning at this point in President Biden’s administration, but the Democrats must pass Biden’s spending plan. The $4 trillion spending package has two parts: $2.3 trillion for jobs infrastructure and $1.8 trillion for an American Family Plan, which would subsidize child and elder care. This is a big winner for the Democratic Team, and offered in other developed countries. Biden is listening to Senator Bernie Sanders and seems to have learned the lessons from the Democratic defeats due to people grown tired of being taken for granted by their corporate-run Democratic party that had lost its way with Bill Clinton at the helm. Now, the GOP, after four years of doing nothing for the American people, want a $568 billion plan, which will do nothing, but make the Democrats look like a losing team, which no one wants to belong to. We like winners. The Democratic Team wants voter rights law passed and stronger union protection bills passed, which, again, is a win for the people and the Democrats. Latest polling shows 70 percent of the people support the $4 trillion spending plan, so, naturally, the GOP is against this plan, which proves the GOP doesn’t care what is best for the people. Which team do you want to be on? All unions should also be supporting this bill that is pro-union jobs, and if you are a union member you already like being on a winning team. Trump’s cult are losers and are not your friends. Pick the winning side—the Democrats.

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
