This is a really good piece on history of SEIU and the now no longer existing Change To Win but goes into a lot that is worth reading and a good critique of top down union leadership and the importance of member lead reform movements popularresistance.org/seiu-and

"@historickomodo submission: “Salvador Allende didn’t die for this shit.”

For newbies playing along at home, this circulates all over the place on pages, and it’s filled with pieces of . Firstly, one can’t really be a and a at the same time – if you support capitalist over the means of , then you support capitalism; if you support ownership over the means of production, where people have a say in the and they contribute to, then you support socialism. I don’t know how to make it more succinct than that. Also, is the post-scarcity natural conclusion of socialism, a / / where -operated is held in common and  “contribute according to their and receive according to their ”; is a aspect of the ideology, ergo a  “forcing everybody to be exactly equal” is not communism. 

Secondly, channeling government power to curb capitalism’s self-destructive excesses is merely Keynesian capitalism or Scandinavian social democracy, both of which try to use the state to mitigate structural tension within the parameters of the system (and all-too-often to wither away class consciousness and pushes for actual socialist change). 

Thirdly and lastly, “the and society being run democratically to meet needs rather than for a few” is literally socialism. Capitalism by definition will always have a tiny class of owners pulling the and strings; as long as they own the means of production and accrue profit off the backs of the class, they will always, always have disproportionate power in society. Such is the of class relations – throughout history, laboring classes have produced the things society needs while ruling classes have sat and accrued the most . If labor produces all, why not have a society democratically run by ?"

May Day and even the american do not exist due to singular acts of super charismatic individuals or the machinations of a small group of people or an org.

exists because individuals - , , husbands, wives -can gather together, express their power from the bottom up & leave for their descendents, the children, grandchildren & so on of these people long forgotten - a legacy that belongs to none of them individually, but rather to all of us collectively.

Today in Labor History December 15, 1914: A gas explosion at Mitsubishi Hōjō coal mine, in Kyushu, Japan, killed 687. It was the worst mining disaster in Japanese history. The explosion was caused by a spark igniting methane and coal dust. The blast was so powerful, it sent the cage (shaft elevator) shooting out of the shaft. In Japan, miners’ wives worked with them in the mines. Consequently, 20% of those who died were women.

Today in Labor History December 7, 2010: Julian Assange was arrested in London and the US declared war on Wikileaks. To this date, he is still in jail in the UK, and still facing deportation to the US, where he could be charged with espionage and sentenced to death, for the crime of journalism, and exposing US war crimes.
