What about socio-economic changes that should help workers organize? For example:
• Workers can communicate more easily without needing to be within earshot of each other (smartphones). • Publication of agitational material "online" is cheaper and faster than when groups needed money for printing a leaflet, or a mimeograph machine. Starbucks workers have made headway despite being scattered across a thousand far-locations. They do not have a regular 40-hour week. On the other hand, they all work for one corporate capital, not for a thousand small businessmen. The new socio-economic conditions have their own downsides, too. All in all, though, organizing is a problem that can be solved, with the potential for great success. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
