It's not much of a conspiracy theory when there's a uniform, coordinated push by a unified class of professional bankers that aren't and have never been aligned with anything remotely like the poor and/or the working class at any point in the history of civilization. Like they aren't even hiding it.

Didn't EU or some EU related entity just do an official investigation into the current wave of massive inflation and conclude that it has nothing at all to do with wages and everything to do with corporate greed?

i still don't fully understand why we all just sort of accept that monetary policy should be completely siloed off from fiscal policy, or that purchasing power in the form of cheap debt is better than purchasing power in the form of wages. i only know for sure that i will never ask a norwegian economist less than sixty years old to explain it to me, for they are basically a bunch of traitors

I don’t expect more from the investors that pop up constantly, not even from that ponytailed guy who pretended to be a staunch social democrat in an interview. I guess that’s on me, too. it’s increasingly apparent that most journalists in the daily papers aren’t about speaking truth to power, they’re just there to hold the microphone, but I still can’t let go of how I want journalism to be.

The biggest reason for how bad it is now (and have been for the past 3 decades) is because the "front fagene" (export businesses) get to negotiate first as a baseline for the rest of us. Problem is that it's always a part left to "local negotiations", and the "front fag" gets these while others usually gets a lot less in local negotiations. Also, the export business is doing great when the krone is worth less - so the offer we got this year isn't very good, despite what they all say. Class Unity is dead

Anders posted:Oh, the ideal is great. Just like communism in the USSR tbf if the petroleum sector tried to strike it'd be broken before you could say "tvungen lønnsnemnd". last year, increased military expenditure ate up a lot of the "glidning" and caused a disproportionately favourable gross outcome for the state as a sector, which means that we're considered to have had a good round of negotiations. ime it's really fellesforbundet (so the electrochemical workers, service workers and construction sector) who really have to want to do a confrontation to increase the general frame. this is all combined with a seemingly very optimistic teknisk beregningsutvalg liking to be very moderate about the rate of price increase projection. i haven't got the impression that IE is typically been the outliers in salary negotiations - pr e.g. https://www.ssb.no/arbeid-og-lonn/lonn-og-arbeidskraftkostnader/statistikk/lonn/artikler/manedslonnen-okte-med-3-200-kr it's especially the finance industry which has been breaking the "ramme". the problem with fronfaget in norway today is that municipal employees basically have no negotiating power, so they keep dropping off and when they try to strike they just get starved out

It wouldn't hold up in Haag and would lead to a lot of ILO boycotts of Norwegian business Tvungen lønnsnemnd can only be used when it's a threat to health and safety, or puts a significant portion of the population in danger The simple answer is that they get significant increases in local negotiations while the rest of the work force don't. This discrepancy has gone on steadily for decades widening the gap It's been good for the government, corporations, and some export workers, while the rest of us has gotten a slightly smaller piece of the cake year after year

It wouldn't hold up in Haag and would lead to a lot of ILO boycotts of Norwegian business you tell me, it seems like the government managed to get by ILO without problems on their last two tvungen lønnsnemd-stunts (shut down the strike across the whole public sector because there was a regular garbage can that was someplace with lots of sun, pretending that teachers had sole responsibility for pupils (mental) health, whether or not their parents had enough time and resources to follow up on them, or what kids and youths did outside of school).

The difference is that teachers and health care workers are in the public sector where the two previous criterias are valid. ILO aren't happy with tvungen lønnsnemnd, but they accept it because LO accepts it. LO would not accept it being used against export industries

it's a complete fairy tale to imagine that an effective petroleum shutdown wouldn't see some kind of effect arise that could formally trigger tvungen lønnsnemnd. somewhere along the line the government would be able to say "ah! liv og helse! back to work, peons". see, for instance, https://www.tu.no/artikler/tvungen-lonnsnemnd-i-oljestreiken/520802 which wasn't even a whole thing

It's impossible to separate NATO from the USA, but the latter is definitely the problem, while the former is just their instrument to control their vassals. I don't think NATO is good or bad, maybe not even really meaningful, but getting the EU tangled out of American interests would be very good, and replacing NATO with a European defence force is a way to do that.
