There are good pro-labor candidates. Support them?

It should be the other way around I believe any pro-labor candidate needs to earn our support by helping workers everyday now.

In this current system there is a huge disconnect from the working class it wouldn’t matter how many. We need a new system with a direct focus on labor rights the people should have a say in government.

We need politicians who understand @StephanieKelton's book "The Deficit Myth". The current economy is not run for you n I @Shut_downAmazon. It's operating for ballers. Michael Hudson explores the same ideas on @CheeseMacro pod here: podcasts.captivate.fm/media/…
the point is--the organized workers as a collective should be nominating candidates. Candidates should not be nominating themselves. We *would* need enough workers mobilized in every state to potentially "spoil" every DNC victory, until voters realized it was a better choice.
