How does one unionize and fight back in a work place against an international foe? Let's use, for example, Wal-Mart: How does one combat a company that has such a massive presence globally, and who is willing to go to almost any length to sniff out agitators with spies, fire anyone for any reason related to unionization, and if all else fails, is willing to shut down an entire store if it manages to unionize?

I don't know a whole lot about Georgism, though what I've seen tends to make a lot of intuitive sense (ie the infamous billboard in the vacant lot) Is it merely meant to be something for reforming a capitalist system of land ownership towards a more socialist system, or is it incompatible with communism entirely due to the state owning everything? Actually for that matter, how did taxes work in the USSR?

mycomancy posted:Imagine if Russia was already industrialized when they socialized! My assumption is that Russia was able to socialize because they weren't industrialized yet. Like a lot of people looking at marx in the late 1800s in russia went "well how does this apply here, there's barely any workers for us to radicalize because everyone's a farmer" which is how things like WItBD got written. And I guess I need to read more Mao now, because I guess that was his conclusion too judging by the post made about it earlier. Most of Europe swung towards socialism through democratic frameworks after WW2, but most of that was a consequence of everything being loving poo poo rear end busted after all of Europe got bombed and shot up. Nowadays it's all been or being dismantled by liberal austerity, like how the UK is attempting to defund the NHS. None of it managed to "stick" because capitalists can more easily put a thumb on the scale of democracy.
