+++That's an old question that was solved already years ago...the corporations get scabs...the workers beat on the scabs...the police come out...some concessions are made. But...if the workers voted their own interests instead of thing that by making their bosses secure and rich they'll also benefit there'd be laws against scabs and strikes would work just fine...even the threat of one would do. Let's not forget that a striking worker is not the Anarchist who wants to set the factory aflame...as owners make it seem...they want to work...want very much to work...and they want to be treated decently and fairly...after all no matter how ingenuous the boss...it's the workers who make it work.

And their jobs aren't secure anyway...so it's hardly their doing when there is downsizing and the rest of it. Hell yes you bring the business to its knees...what do you think they're doing to their workers...elevating them?

Should women have demanded the vote? Look at all the trouble it caused for those who started the Movement. Human dignity and Justice, as a priinciple to be kept alive, are always worth the risk...because the risk of not doing it is far worse,,,ask Hammurabi.
