I repeat: It’s the unfairness, stupid

A couple of days ago, I argued that economic unfairness is the issue, above all others, that carries the potential to bring about a fundamental realignment of political power in this country to the benefit of the Democratic Party.

I rest my case, again.

(NY Times) Three Polls Find Workers Sensing Deep Pessimism

Three new opinion polls released yesterday found deep pessimism among American workers, with most saying that wages were not keeping pace with inflation and that workers were worse off in many ways than a generation ago.

The Pew Research Center found in a survey of 2,003 adults completed last month that an overwhelming majority said workers had less job security and faced more on-the-job stress than 20 or 30 years ago.

The nonpartisan Pew center, said, “The public thinks that workers were better off a generation ago than they are now on every key dimension of worker life — be it wages, benefits, retirement plans, on-the-job stress, the loyalty they are shown by employers or the need to regularly upgrade work skills.”

In a poll of 803 registered voters commissioned by the A.F.L.-C.I.O., Peter D. Hart Research found that 55 percent said their incomes were not keeping up with inflation, 33 percent said their incomes were keeping even and 9 percent said their incomes were outpacing inflation.

    from the link:
    “with the six unions that left it over the past year.”

    so why wonder?

    unions are the lobbyists of the workers - and if workers fall prey to the pavlov-training, that everything you do together with others is “communism” and that everytime you need help, you are a “loser” - they have to suffer the consequences

    united we stand - the Aristocrats do that since aeons, it’s just Joe Sixpack and Sally Soccermom, who can be puppeteered by “divide et impera”, by rule and divide

  2. Larry the Red Says:

    Pavlov-training, indeed. I used to work in the oil fields of the Texas panhandle during the summer when I was in high school and college. It was back-breaking work for which we paid barely more than the minimum wage. Even though everybody griped about the low wages, to a man they rejected the idea of unionizing. They swallowed whole the bullshit about communism and their precious “freedom” of contract. They really saw themselves as rugged individualists upholding the American Way instead of the exploited and manipiulated drones they were. Unbelievable.
