The asshole capitalists are finding out that yes, indeed, the worker class has power and will use that power to better their lives and equalize society once they truly know just how powerful they are. From Starbucks baristas to IW wobblies, unions are coming back.

The labor elitists care zero for the deplorables; they sent all the jobs to China in the last big labor uprising. I don't see any evidence that anything was learned.

That's the theory. Sadly, they spen most of their time filling their pockets and pushing their Marxist agendas. The rest of the time they are working to send jobs overseas.

Lots and lots of jobs in the Green renaissance. If only myopic capitalists keep jobs here and not there.

Myopic is an understatement. "Keep those nasty immigrants out" or weaken the child labor laws until we can train them for cheaper labor because fascist billionaires and their toadies gotta keep the shareholders happy. Fascist double speak.

The job of capitalists is to earn a return on other people's money. How is that myopic? The job of politicians is to formulate policy which actually works for the betterment of the populace. Are they doing that?

"the stuff that causes monocles to fall to the ground and shatter." got me logged in to substack for the 1st. Dunno, but pretty sure it was TYT that brought that article to my email.

53 minute video on youtube with Ken giving advice to journalists on how to be successful with FOIA requests. Eye opening!

Here in Germany, many Rentner, retirees, pick up part-time work as drivers to augment their income. It's not strenuous and provides a little extra income.
