We're fast becoming like China- WAGE SLAVES. |
|
Re-Unionize America or watch it all come crashing down around us. Like we're seeing happen TODAY.
What will it take to open the fucking eyes of our elected Dem 'leaders', including the President?
Demand the Employee Free Choice Act be enacted.
Demand 'Free' Trade reform.
Demand Fair Trade.
Solidarity will set us free.

through implementation here, especially since 9/11. Lower wages is part of the corporate experiment towards their utopia.

"Be not intimidated... nor suffer yourselves to be wheedled out of your liberties by any pretense of politeness, delicacy, or decency. These, as they are often used, are but three different names for hypocrisy, chicanery and cowardice." John Adams 2nd U.S. President

4. Prescott Bush Jr. played a big role. |
|
Of course, he was just pallin' around with his little brother's friends in the Party leadership. Wanna know why it seems all the good-paying unionized manufacturing jobs went to China?

6. "becoming"? I think we're fooling ourselves if we ever imagined ourselves otherwise. |
|
I think 99% of us today have always been wage slaves. The ruling class just let some of us believe otherwise as long as that motivated us to work to their benefit.
Or maybe I'm just depressed this morning.

7. We have been that for a long time.....health insurance tied to employment |
|
is a major factor in the slavery of American workers, as is the lack of an educational system that teaches people how to think rather than just prepares them for a job. Add "religion" and a legal system similar to Nazi Germany and it's a wonder we have as much freedom as we have.
