what about those of us whose jobs depend on the delivery of products and materials by rail?
Would have been much better off not just in the long run but more or less immediately. There’s thousands of minor derailments every year and every expert is saying that it’s only a matter of time before a major one happens again. All because the companies make it impossible for their workers to do the job properly with their short term profits obsessed thinking destroying the bodies and psyches of the people and causing faster deterioration of the materiel they’re unable to properly maintain.
a strike would have shuttered our business and put a bunch of people out of work
You’re doing the same thing the rail corporations do. The continuation of the awful conditions is going to cost hundreds if not thousands of lives and many times more jobs than a strike would.
more power ends up in the hands of the owner class, and we all have slightly less to go around
Is what happens by the letting them continuing to get away with their extremely abusive and irresponsible practices. Could you be any more myopic??
learn to see past your own nose
Take your own advice, you arrogant idiot.
Things are never as simple as people present them on places like this
Especially not when those people are as simple-minded and shortsighted as you.
I’m not a Marxist (or a communist at all, for that matter), but if anyone needs the perfect example of the lumpenproletariat participating in their own oppression by believing the lies of their oppressors, this is it.
Also no. Biden didn’t get them shit. He appointed better people than himself on the advice of better people than himself. Only thing he did personally was use his influence to take away their right to strike.

How do you take yourself seriously.

Because I learn from labor movements of the past and how to apply what worked for them to our current situation.

Says the guy who didn’t learn from history what happens when workers lose their right to strike…
