Political Discussions for "Adults"

It would be revolutionary if a bunch of Orthodox Jews started spontaneously looting. For black teens in Philly that's just another Tuesday.

This is more revolutionary than anything Portland antifa has ever done

It looks more like the City of Brotherly Looting.

Black looters matter.

Tbh the whole border situation is part of why I had to turn on Trump. I never took all that build the wall **** serious I just loved how much the media hated him. Even Fox openly despised him right up until they figured out he was their only choice.

Bill de Blasio’s proposes a Worker’s Bill of Rights

https://billdeblasio.com/billofrights/

Quote:

Bill de Blasio’s “Just Cause” policy would replace “at will” employment with a just cause system that protects workers from unfair terminations.

a right to at least two weeks paid personal time year

ensure all workers have access to paid sick days

guarantee that workers are paid when they take leave for the birth of a child or to care for themselves or a family member

Falsely claiming that workers are independent contractors in order to skirt worker protections will be a thing of the past. This practice would be illegal and punished severely.

Workers will have the right to know their schedules at least two weeks in advance.
Workers will be entitled to make their own decisions about working additional hours outside of their schedule — and will receive premium pay when they do.
Workers will be entitled to compensation when scheduled work is cancelled.

Raise the minimum wage to $15

Bill de Blasio will ensure salaried workers who still don’t earn a real livable wage are paid time and a half when they work overtime. Anyone making less than $50,000 a year should automatically receive time and a half pay for more than 40 hours of work per week.

Increase penalties for violations, including increasing use of criminal prosecution for wage theft. When employers systematically steal money from workers it should be treated as a crime just as other forms of theft are.

Make it easier to join a union

Institute “card check”: Workers will be able to join a union at any time by signing up confidentially. When a majority of the workers at a particular workplace have joined a union, the National Labor Relations Board must certify the union and order the company to begin collective bargaining.
Eliminate all forms of employer interference and intimidation on the subject of union representation: No worker should ever be pressured by anyone during work time. That means an end to captive audience meetings, and barring managers from discussing unionization with workers when they are on the clock.

Ban permanent replacement of striking workers.
Guarantee free speech for workers and unions, including removing prohibition on secondary boycotts.

Ban “non-compete” clauses that currently apply to an estimated 30 million workers, restricting worker mobility and suppressing wages by preventing employees from accepting a better job at a different company.

Seems pretty inconsequential in comparison to the rise of fascism elsewhere. Or did I miss that uprising in Canada?
