I'm going to be clear on my position. @IwriteOK making good money for what he does doesn't mean shit. Working within a system that's fucked without endorsing it is what everyone who's trying to feed themselves does. Survival doesn't mean poverty. The system is fucked.
Full disclosure I work in a specialist blue collar field and constantly work with people who work harder than me and put up with more bullshit than I do for much less. The only thing that's kept blue collar jobs out of poverty wages is unions.
@iww unions are the greatest threat to the capitalist class because when workers are united wealth and power mean nothing. The people have power, it's about time we exercise it.
