Proper use of mass power
Unions lost power by their own self-destructive idiocy. For several decades unions struck for higher wages, even when their leaders KNEW that the strike would kill the company or offshore the factory and thus delete the jobs. Most of those union workers ALREADY had higher wages than anyone else in the country, so they didn't NEED higher wages.
Now for the first time we have a union returning to the ORIGINAL idea of protecting the workers from the corporation.
Via ZH:
Tens of thousands of American Airlines' flight attendants fear for their safety and will not work on Boeing 737 Max planes if they return to the air in 2020, the Association of Professional Flight Attendants (APFA) union's president wrote in a letter to Boeing's CEO this week.If unions had been acting like this all along, they wouldn't have killed themselves. Good work. ¶ 6:00 AM
