The revitalization of the labor movement isn’t going to destroy capitalism; it’s the only thing that can save it.

To me the most enlightened economies are hybrids of socialism and capitalism, as in certain Scandinavian countries.

We already have a mixture of capitalism and socialism in our country. Just a matter of slightly adjusting the ratio.
Replying to @marwilliamson
Sure. And, they are still fallible when the consideration is how the current economic structure impacts public health and environment.
Replying to @marwilliamson
No, they are fossil-based and ecocidal. So, no.

Sure as a stepping stone to phase out Capitalism as a whole. It’s literally killing the entire planet, so that 56.1 million ppl can live in luxury.

Capitalism causes 550,000 Americans to live outside. That’s failure. Abject failure.

As we are all living in society as it is, labor unions are what we need standing as a people to demand better conditions, pay & benefits. Not all of us have your privilege. Maybe use it for good instead of raining on today's worker victory.

Enlightened economies are those that value people before profit, honesty before greed, transparency and the enrichment of all who choose to participate in it. We are way off but I love y'all nonetheless 💖
