Quebec's labour tribunal has given union accreditation to workers at an Amazon warehouse in Laval, Que., a first in Canada.  

Workers at the DXT4 warehouse, located in Laval, a suburb north of Montreal, had been working toward unionizing with the Confédération des syndicats nationaux (CSN) for two years.

There is an inherent struggle between the oppressed working class and the oppressive #capitalist system, and I commend all #workers' who are openly resisting against #capitalism and its exploitation and repression, just as the revolutionaries in the Paris Commune once did.

To those who say "capitalism doesn't force people to do anything. They have free will", if someone put a gun to the head of someone, would that not be a use of force? And how would you feel if the gunman said "I'm not forcing you to do anything. You have the freewill not to give me your money." But if you don't then you'll die, just like the worker will die if they don't do what the capitalist says.

Remember, it's the wealthy capitalist, landlords, and self-serving politicians depriving the working class of affordable housing, NOT refugees.

Capitalism monopolizes resources, forcing workers to sell their labor for survival. Capitalist exploit this by paying minimal wages, trapping workers in a cycle of wage slavery while enriching themselves.

To quote a small part:
She called for a transformation in the discourse on migration, moving away from viewing migrants as a "group of foreign nationals addressing labor needs" to a narrative centered on "making migrants and their families part of the local community."

Korea's decline in population started a few years ago, and there are models showing it will continue to decline in the foreseeable future.

Well, if you wanted to start a shift to British (economic) isolationism than #Brexit looks to have been a good start... for the last five years the UK has been trading less with other countries (importing/exporting less).

If this was a structured & planned strategy then one might have been able to assemble an argument for why this made sense.... but an unplanned & chaotic reduction in trade will likely just be hurting #workers (again).

Didn't 'project fear' have something to say about this?

Another week, another #BigTech (#gigeconomy) share buyback... this time its #Uber.

Ostensibly to help reduce stock dilution caused by stock awards to core staff (including the CEO), once again (as I've pointed out before), it shows that Uber's #business model is nothing to do with investment in #innovation & everything to do with #wagetheft & expoiting #workers.

Uber doesn't need any tech innovation or new kit, so investment not required; just keeps sh*ting on the drivers to make a profit!

Uber says it finally made an annual profit after 15 years, but who paid the price to get it there?

The company fired 6,700 workers, hiked fares for customers, and squeezed drivers even harder. Now the stock is up and investors will get a $7 billion share buyback. It turns your stomach.

Bosses exploit labor for profit. Workers should collectively own and manage production and eliminate the need for bosses, dismantle class divisions, and through this, empower the working class. All individuals are entitled to the full fruits of their labor in a cooperative and non-exploitative system where wealth and resources are distributed equitably among the working class. Reject capitalism and its hierarchical nature.

When self-described capitalists don’t actually seem to know what capitalism actually is.

Well, at least the Competition & Markets Authority is seeing what the Bank of England in its selective myopia frequently ignores.

In the CMA's report into the retail market, they identify a clear raising of profitability by food & other producers, with price rises that are now feeding #inflation not merely reflecting it.

Those who coined the phrase #greedflation having been saying this for some time only for the BoE to repeatedly downplay this aspect, while still focusing on #workers wages!

C'est magnifique :blobaww: :blackcat:
