okay, class struggle is real, i guess like global warming is.
i am wondering, if instead of making union inside capitalist buisness, a thing that is more likely to make the shit hit the fan, could we just build our own parallel system to compete and eventually swallow/assimilate the currents structures/buisness to our way of doing thing.
my sister happen to work for a buisness that is extremely egalitarian, the boss himself dont earn much than the other worker there, when more profit are accumulated, it goes either in everyone salaries or in the buisness itself, so basicly, everyone is paid the same. there is constant efforts to make people at ease at their jobs, they saw that has a way to motivate worker to do a better job.
now, this is a small example, a small buisness of 25 employee, but if buisness like that would get together, help eachother and form some kind of giant workers trust, it could eventually make things moving.
member of the trust would have some kind of partnership system that would allow every buisness being part of it to benefit of various free services offered by other member of that organization.
lets say your buisness repair computer, you usually charge a price to your customer, but if lets say, x buisness member of the trust got problem with their system, you have has a member of that trust to go there for free to help them out. some kind of big global collaboration.
in exchange, buisness of the trust have to meet specific requirement:egalitarian wage system, no discrimination etc etc.
anyway , to me, it seem far more progressive to wage war to the system that way than trying to unionize McDonalds.
Eventually one day some guy of the trust will start making their own fast food chain where folks would be paid far more than anywhere else, and gonna bankrupt mCdonald. this whole egalitarian system will become a trend, The system gonna resist, but eventually be overwhelmed by the number of community/egalirarian buisness popping out of nowhere.
when the market gonna be changed, politics will change. some guy one day said that politics where fucked up by economics, well then lets take back the economic system, make it ours.
its still class struggle, but the approach is different. its not perfect, but its something i have been juggling with for a fews hour already.
