so is this "hillary's literally the same as bernie" v2.0 or "you're all just in love with bernie's cult of personality and if he was centrist you'd all be centrist"?

i mean, they're both p much as dumb, just curious which of these idiot arguments you're making GA?

-what % representation do workers have on most German boards, and how has that affected corporate governance & wage growth, if at all

- if minority board membership is completely unacceptable, how do you plan to avoid the pitfalls that led tot he defeat of the meidner plan in sweden for gradual majority worker ownership

i don't have answers here but i'd be interested in hearing the thoughts of ppl who seem to really hate this proposal from elizabeth warren, a politican who i dislike intensely due to her profound liberalism and her imperialist foreign policy

Putting workers on the board without a strong power base is going to be useless. What will happen is all the non worker board members will meet and make all the decisions. Then go to the board and have a show vote.

And that's if workers are even allowed to vote for reps that they want. What's to stop the company from pushing their own candidates and punishing workers that vote against them? Or even just changing work classification. You all are contractors so you don't get to vote. The massive power imbalance is going to allow so much fuckery.

The proposal is doomed to failure.

I don’t like the bill because it starts at a compromise and is trying to save capitalism from itself. but also conditions in America are so bad that this is an ok stepping stone policy to full worker control of the economy and politics.

1) germany is still a capitalist shithole. it's not even a social Democratic paradise, let alone a socialist paradise. it's, at best, a small incremental step. too bad incrementalism sucks and Germany's been run by loving Merkel for forever

2) guillotine the centrist politicians who gave in to business pressure and killed literal socialism? this isn't very hard to figure out, yo

I'd much rather have a minimum wage increase that is guaranteed to put money in workers hands instead of some nebulous non-majority control of the board that can be easily subverted but will somehow lead to wage growth, we promise!

I always read combat in that phrase the same way it is read in combat sports and it makes liberalism sound somewhat cool.

the whole second run of the show has been built out as a "stereotypes that need to be destroyed"

but it never wrestles with any of the causes or consequences of said stereotypes

there's a scene in I think the third episode where the black guy gets pulled over while driving to the home of the client who's a cop, and although it's insanely cool that the producers left in several seconds of his visible terror at having to interact with cops in the deep south...

it turns out it's a prank so haha no big deal right guys just joshin!
