Prepare for A.I.

The working people and unions need to be thinking big and way ahead to keep up with the working conditions, which continue to change with the advancement of automation and artificial intelligence, which is going to put people out of work. A.I. is an inevitable by product of progress and unions have t be prepared for the changes that come with it. These workers are not going away. They will still need shelter, food, and healthcare. They are the spenders who buys the goods and products that the corporations market. So, one way to keep the money flowing is a universal basic income. This way, people can work for less if their union negotiate a good contract. Then there is the possibility of a four-day work week, which will be a big change in the work environment. There are some good things which can come from the four-day work week. Our unions are the ones that should be upfront and at the table to get the best deal for their union workers. The corporations will be looking out for their shareholders and not the workers. Big changes need big thinkers, and this is the time is the best that I have seen since the 1970s. At this time we have a President Biden, who not only supports unions, but walked a picket line. We also have the support of Senator Bernie Sanders, who just submitted a bill in the U.S. Senate advocating for a four-day work week. Unions must protect the workers. If we lose them, we will lose things like the National Labor Relations Board, the right to strike, and the right to protest in the streets. If the GOP wins in the 2024/25 election the first thing they will go after is to destroy all unions and the voting rights.
