What makes a living wage, and why that matters for workers across Ontario | CBC News https://bit.ly/3vQv0YO #LivingWage #FoodSecurity #Housing #LivableWage #onpoli @onpoli @ontariogreens

@rbreich it’s been 6 years now, going on 7, since we saw kkk/nazi uprise in the open, and corporations backing kkk/nazi politicians. What is the cornerstone of kkk/nazi/fascist/colonialist/capitalist values and philosophy? Survival of the fittest. If you believe in that, you are a nazi. This isn’t an opinion, this is a 1+1=2 scenario. You are perpetuating and enabling them.

Why are corporations doing all the things mentioned here? Because survival of the fittest, and they’re exercising their superiority complex.

They want more people dead, so there is less need to share resources, to maintain their superiority complex, which allows them to dictate “my way or the highway”, maintain hierarchy, and of course to maintain power and profits.

This isn’t new, this is just what we are waking up to when we saw corporations and politicians picking papers and numbers over lives at the peak of a world wide killer virus that was spreading like wild fire. What’s the difference between mass genocide of people based on race, and mass genocide of just people based on profits? What’s worse?

Why is one not okay, and the other is because money? and does that make you a nazi or a severely psychologically damaged person who’s been brainwashed to embrace sociopathic outlook on life?

Wouldn’t this make capitalism worse because it destroys lives, spreads killer viruses intentionally, because profits and maintaining rich peoples’ superiority complex? That doesn’t sound insane, to value some made up concept over people, lives and social well-being? Doesn’t that line up with sociopathy?

We have to protest and shut down their profits and businesses until our goal is met. #5HrsMaxWorkDays #LivableWage if you are qualified for the job, you’re qualified for a livable wage.

5hrs prevents exploitation, allows you to enjoy your life (possibly the only one you’ll have) instead of wasting it on serving exploitation all your life, and it creates more jobs through the process of needing more people for 3 shifts to keep businesses open later.

#QualityEducationSystems provides opportunities, creates better social interaction and problem solving, and interpersonal skills, that are necessary for a progressive multicultural society. #ProgressiveEducationSystems
#AffortableEducationSystems

#CertifiedBCorporations allow businesses to follow progressive business practices and prevents exploitation, and destruction without any accountability or responsibility for the economy they depend on for profits.

Protest. Day after day, week after week, month after month, with rotating groups of protesters (group A protests, group B takes over allowing A to rest, group C etc) with signs that have these tags, for a new chapter in how we spend our time alive, and of course, to prevent another nazi, capitalist/facists uprising, before it’s too late and it’ll be much harder to reverse.

Without we the people, there are no employees and no profits. Demand change, accountability, and responsibility.

The store's employees won the election by a vote of 11 to 7, becoming the first Starbucks location in #Nevada to unionize with #Starbucks Workers United.

Can I just order from the App., pay from the App., and drink my coffee from a machine - at the drive thru window?
Pretty soon, a venti drip is going to be $12

Every single GOP senator voted against raising the minimum wage to $15/hr last year. All 50 of them.

@rbreich question still remains after all these exploitation exposures, catching them on lies, contradiction, gaslighting, manipulation…what are we going to do about it??? Endless “I knew it” comments, and knowledge boasting doesn’t achieve anything, while they continue to exploit and abuse.

Long, consecutive, and consistent #massprotests demanding change is the answer. That’s how Iran banned the morality police. Take note of how the accomplished it.

In the 1800s, people banded together and shut down the economy to demand change of working hrs. That’s how 8hrs came about, instead of 11-13. There’s no answer aside from collective ACTION. #5HrsMaxWorkDays #LivableWage tags on protest signs

@TonyStark absolutely. But to expect change coming from a corrupt system is fooling yourself. Every generation has worked on this, wasting years of their life, money and youth, and where has it gotten them? Still debating and fighting for interracial marriage rights. From the 50s to 2022, close to 75 years, it has gotten them fuckall. Running around in the same place while being gaslit progress.

Since the 60s, have wages gotten better or worse? Have environmental decisions gotten better? Have education system gotten better? Has the economy gotten better? Since then, have people said the same things you’ve said as solutions through the political system?

It has to be done through mass protests, thousands of people protesting, which by that nature will collapse what this nazi party thrives on and couldn’t care less to improve. The economy. By the nature of such mass protests, people will be blocking roads. This has to be done consistently and consecutively, the protests in Iran are a great example.

It has to be for change that will actually allow people to invest in the subjects you described. If people are working all day, coming back home to only have 2-3 hours to themselves, while barely paying their bills, you think they’ll dedicate what little free time they have to politics? Let’s be real here. Will those same people care to contribute to politicians or political agendas when the system they represent is exploiting them?

This is why it’s important for people to take direct action without depending on politicians or the system to create meaningful change. #5HrsMaxWorkDays and #LivableWage will give people the freedom, time and money to actually invest in improving the economy. None of this will be considered for a moment by the very people who designed this system to be this exploitable. To think that’s an option is setting yourself up for another 75 years of running around in the same place. Without this change, without these protests, I promise you, no progress will be made for generations, if even.
