Jeff definitely believes he is invincible, but he still feels threatened by unions.
unfreeradical
There is no reason for companies to bother busting unions. Unions have never really helped workers anyway.
The question may be essentially a red herring of whether help is given by the government.
Governments help workers not by their own accord, but because workers struggle to develop power against the state-capital power duopoly that structures our society.
Unions develop such power for workers.
Labor advances not by being helped by government, but by developing power separate from government, for workers.
Based on your own thinking, what would you understand as the attributes of a relationship or agreement that may be considered fair?
Every community has different expectations for participation.
Each should offer a cogent explanation for everyone to understand.
I am not personally interested in sophistry.
If he owns vehicles, then he is entitled to exploit people to drive them.
The system has conditioned him to find a way to rationalize that he is victim.
Honestly, if you are establishing the community as anti-tankie, then the rule against sectarianism would seem meaningless, indeed misleading, and almost sophistic.
I suggest simply declaring outright the sectarian commitments of the community, as long as your enforcement will lead to such an effect in practice.
It will be interesting to watch their business model working without any workers working.
Bad behavior will result in comment/post removal, and repeated or egregious behavior will result in a ban.
Such a kind of enforcement is quite different from what I have observed.
Every party is different, and every has a power structure that at various times will attract controversy and antagonism.
Most of the work in advancing workers interest and building socialist organization occurs on the ground through direct action.
You might consider participating in a mutual aid group or contributing to labor mobilization efforts operating near wherever you are located.
As you learn about various groups and their differences, you might find that you have a perspective more deeply compatible with some groups than with to others.
So leading with “the argument is sloppy” is a nice friendly way of opening a conversation?
I am rejecting your characterization that I have been hostile, which is also not supported by the text you quoted.
Your tone consistently has escalated toward one that is petty and oppositional.
The government surely can.
The government has the power to levy taxes.
The government has comprehensive powers for regulating the value of currency, through control over the money supply.
At any rate, the government printing money for workers cannot possibility be worse for workers than the government printing money for businesses, as it is doing now.
I suppose, though, you might take comfort in how inflation now is being so effectively prevented, instead of causing needless human suffering.
