Marriott workers on strike in eight US cities

Another reason not to allow concentrated wealth and power to build walls around you, especially when you're already under constant corporate state surveillance. That's the future. More and more of us will become necessary to capital. See Apalachia. We've always had them. Reservations. Ghettos. 25% of the world's incarcerated population for our 5% of the total. Hell most of Mississippi is a sacrifice zone. Michigan. What is a society going to do with a growing population no longer necessary for profit margin growth generation in a declining ecological system? Do a deep dive on public water supply quality across the nation, not just Flint.

How do you think they might manage that? Have you seen their military? You know, the one with 8 wars without end amen amen? Seen how they use it on others in the name of progress? Seen your police lately? Seem a tad more military?

If The Democrat Party were a religion Ned Ludd would be Pope.

What's next, a Party march on hotels destroying things like telephone answering machines....a prime example of "automation"? Maybe ripping out self-closing doors?
