We've been through this shit before.
On January 10, 1776, Thomas Paine wrote Common Sense, The Rights of Man, a 47-page pamphlet outlining the rights of Americans deserved emancipation from Great Britain.
“We, the people, can change the world,” he wrote.
Just as the new Americans beat the British Monarchy in 1776, we, today, can and will beat back oligarchies of the world in 2026. This will be done with union people power the world over.
It will be the most powerful army of the world, We, union people, will demand a new world for the people, not just for the oligarchies and their families. We will demand healthcare, elder care, child care, free schools for all levels of education, voting rights, right to unionize, good wages, safe working conditions, pensions adequate enough to live on, climate change mitigations, and LGBTQ rights.
It will be a government for the people by the people, not the corporations and oligarchies pulling the strings of those who make the decisions. We can eliminate this government and its’ blood thirty war of distractions.
It will be the people against the 1 percent and they will have to join us because there will be no place for them to hide on this earth.
Maybe they’ll see this or other articles shaming them for their unbridled greed and stop building space ship to hide out orbiting earth until it’s save to return or hiding out in their New Zealand underground facilities.
We cannot stand idly by and let them destroy our earth and government without putting up a fight.
We can start our fight by having a world-wide strike on May 1, 2028, beginning at twelve noon. Now is the time to prepare and be ready to fight for our rights. History teaches us that progress comes from the bottom up not from the top down, because why would people who have everything care about people who are barely getting by? Every major expansion has been won by ordinary people in the streets.
We will also want a four-daywork week and a universal basic income to cover the loss of jobs to AI. This could be our new 4th of July worldwide with no kings.
The survival of American democracy requires the existence of a flourishing union work force. In a survey, 68 percent of Americans approve of labor unions. So, as an old sheet metal organizer, I say we need to go all out in organizing while the soldering iron is hot, to use a sheet metal workers tool. We should organize all workers no matter where or what kind of work they do. All workers have the right to belong to a union and all should support each other. If you, in your work place, do not know how to form a union, then do what Napoleon’s military adopted adage, ‘Jump into the battle and then figure it out.’ One of the best ways to organize is worker to worker and plan it out over a meal or coffee and talk to other union workers to see what would work best for you and also what unions are winning at this time. Just go for it. When things are in disarray, like the shit show in Washington, D.C., they might not even know what you are doing until it is too late for them to push back aga...
