Growing Wealth Inequality in the U.$.

[Nothing Human Is Alien]

How many working class people do you actually know? I don't know very many people who are content with their situation or think that they just need to 'work harder.' Working people realize they are fucked. It's hard not to when you're a paycheck away from homelessness. I think the majority of working people are just trying to survive. And if they don't join the latest reformist parade, it's because they don't see any hope in it.

Workers will fight back because they have to. Because the only alternative is destitution. Not because they were convinced by the latest issue of Socialist Rag Monthly. That's what happened in Madison recently. And if that fight didn't succeed, it's got more to do with a lack of experience and foresight; a perceived lack of options; and the treachery of the supposed "friends of labor" than some contentedness with the system.

Good points but how do people even begin to fight this?

how do people even begin to fight this?

The oligarchs won't even begin to be concerned until they fear that someone might scale the walls around their McMansion.

However, since no devil ever cut off its own claws ... all American workers should get armed and organized in the meantime.

I think that the US was mostly scared of workers because there was a giant superpower arming rebellions and subversive units in other nations.

Now the US/Imperial West doesn;t give a damn about any movements or is all that concerned.
