Two stories in today's NYTimes might seem unrelated at first. But put them together.
First, workers are commodified at a growing rate: http://www.nytimes.com/2012/10/28/business/a-part-time-life-as-hours-shrink-and-shift-for-american-workers.html?hp&pagewanted=all. Commodified also are the entreprenurial dairy farmers: http://www.nytimes.com/2012/10/28/business/in-dairy-industry-consolidation-lush-paydays.html Dairy co-ops have, as have labor unions, tried but are failing to save their respective members. Cut the work week to save workers. Gene _______________________________________________ pen-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.csuchico.edu/mailman/listinfo/pen-l
