Progressives must fight for jobs as a right going forward
We have societies because together we can do better for all than singly. These societies use economic systems as mechanisms to structure distribution of the resources of the nation. These systems are humanmade, and the community must make them in a manner that takes humanity, compassion, willingness to work, and monopoly into account. We must guarantee jobs as rights.
Absent jobs in the private sector, the government must provide a livable wage job to ensure that anyone who wants to work can.
