Worker wages come from money they generate You’ve probably heard that business owners provide their workers with a job and a salary. Here’s why that framing of our current economic system is misleading.

...AND RUMORS OF WARS - deportations, tariffs and the sea lanes of the South China Sea - a world war may be coming, can we stop it before it starts?

…AND RUMORS OF  WARS –  deportations tariffs and the sea lanes of the South China Sea – a world war may be coming, can we can stop it before it starts?   For the last few years, the Central Military Commission of the Communist Party of China and the United states Department of Defense have been quietly but deliberately preparing for a world war in and around the South  China Sea, the Straits of Taiwan and the island of Taiwan itself   The world’s two main imperialist powers – America and China – have come to conflict for the reasons that imperialist countries always do – conflict over who’s billionaire investors and multinational corporations will get to exploit and plunder the world   China rose rapidly in the last century – from a backwards Third World semi feudal state plundered by every imperialist power to being the world’s leading manufacturing nation (30% of all the manufactured goods on the face of this Earth were MADE IN CHINA) – the br...

WORKERISM – or, society should be ruled by those who produce all the essential goods and services of life   By Gregory A. Butler   The fundamental problem in our society has it’s roots in two interrelated conflicts  -   1. COMMODITY PRODUCTION All of the necessary goods and services of life are sold as commodities, for the private financial benefit of a small exploitative minority of society   2. THE EXPLOITATION OF LABOR The majority of society are forced to sell their labor power to the class that sells those commodities; that majority produce all the wealth that flows from that commodity production but only receive a tiny portion of those values as their wage   This is the root cause of every social problem in our society and in every capitalist society on the planet (as every country or territory on Earth is a capitalist society, this is a problem everywhere)   This has been the fundamental problem in the world since the ori...
