capitalists trying to disband the unions under the guise of fighting the crisis

Capitalists are at it again. So the reason for the falling of the house of cards in the automobile industry is only the unions, not the stupidity and greed of the bosses who awarded themselves multi million dollar bonuses.

Even in the middle of such a huge and devastating crisis, they are still after their nemesis, the proletariat and the wage earners. I say:

1. We have to thank Unions. Without the strong unions in auto industry, that can gain good benefits and salaries for the workers, the other industries will be more aggressive in cutting wages and benefits. At least with these unions, other workers can always point at their benefits and ask for the same from their bosses. That is the reason the whole capitalist class hates the big unions and wants to get rid of the auto workers unions.

2. General public, instead of hating and being jealous of the auto workers salaries and benefits should ask for the same from their own industries. This is the name of the game for the capitalists, make other workers angry about why they are getting that high salaries and push them to demand that "they" should get as low as us. While the rational thing is to ask that "we" have to receive as much as them, not that they have to be like us.
