unions
Hey, speaking of rich people and complicit corporate media, did you know two of the three richest men on Earth (Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos) and the family that own's Trader Joes, are currently trying to get American courts to declare the core functions of the National Labor Relations Act unconstitutional, and the mainstream media is literally barely reporting it?
Although this story seems complex, the essential point here is that these rich maggots who have both a vested interest in stopping unions, and own companies with a documented history of unionbusting, want to stop the board that rules on NLRA cases, from hearing cases in their administrative courts. This matters because these courts allow in particular, workers who've been fired for organizing unions by big corporations like Amazon, Tesla, and Trader Joe's to quickly get a ruling that stops those companies from union busting by simply axing the organizers. The rich guys, using essentially the same arguments that were refuted by SCOTUS almost 90 years ago, would prefer those cases be heard in federal court, because it would *guarantee* "that by the time they reach the bench, those organizing campaigns will have become a dim memory." Furthermore, it's entirely possible that the richest folks in the oligarch class won't stop there, and might even ask a very anti-union SCOTUS to literally toss the NLRA altogether, leaving workers entirely exposed to whatever predations these rich maggots want to enact upon them.
In other words, and to quote the author of this article:
"in a time of stratospheric economic inequality and overwhelming public support for unions, they want the courts to strike down workers’ right to collective bargaining? One of the fundamental landmarks of the New Deal? Shall we negate all of America’s mid-20th-century social progress? All of Roosevelt’s legacy? How about we revisit World War II and surrender to the Nazis and Japan?"
Naturally, you would assume this might be bigger news than it has been. But the truth is, corporate media in America has a vested class interest in keeping this one on the downlow because they too are owned by rich (mostly) American oligarchs; in the case of a paper like the Washington post, their boss, Jeff Bezos, is literally one of the oligarchs bringing the case before the courts through his EvilCorpTM, the American multinational corporation and technology company Amazon. When the same guys busting the unions, own the papers, it's clearly possible to gut the right to collectively bargain with barely a whisper leaking out into the mainstream discourse. In the immortal words of Frank Zappa, "they just takes care of number one, an' number one ain't you; you ain't even number two..."

This is great. Disney workers, trying to unionize, created buttons and stickers featuring Mickey Mouse's raised, clenched fist. It's public domain after all! Disney tried to stop them wearing these at work, but there's a law that says companies can't do that, even if they have a dress code, so the unionizers are suing Disney.
Okay, I finally did it, I started a Labor & Unions starter pack. I'm sure it's incomplete, so help me out, tell me who I'm missing!
(If you're on the list and want to be removed, I apologize, please tell me that as well. It does respect discoverability settings but I realize that's not everything.)

I am downright delighted to announce that my latest book, YOU DESERVE A TECH UNION, has a brand new look. I really love it, and I hope you do too.
Here’s a look at what’s changed and—maybe more importantly—what’s stayed the same:

A musician friend notes, "I guess now we have an answer to the burning question, "How terrible does an elected leader have to be to warrant a public rebuke from the decidedly non-political Musicians' Union?" "

Organized labor has taken a leading role in challenging the Trump administration’s downsizing agenda in court. A new service will offer more individualized representation." #UnionStrong
