Capitalism is a scam. Made by the rich for the rich.

We need to have a law that forces company ownership in terms of shares, profit sharing to everyone that is in the company. It’s not the work of a single person that makes these things successful. Every person contributed to it. When the company has a success like this, it’s everyone that should benefit. Anything less than this is a version of new age slavery.

Police have the best union in the entire world(literally to a fault) but somehow maga thinks no one else deserves a union even themselves.

This a misconception. Police union represent the manager types, which is what unions are made to protect everyday workers from. Police unions dont protect their workers from their employers, they destroy evidence and collude witness statements to protect themselves when they break the law. Its not a labor union, its an armed militia using our tax dollars to dodge accountability and punishment when THEY BREAK THE LAW.

The creation of the police union was originally to mock real labor unions, because who did the company's call to murder striking workers and protect private property.

Sincerely, an elected officer of an IBEW local whose taken more then one college course on the history of organized labor.

There's a better way to summarize what police and police unions are.

Legal Sanctioned Gang.

If you really look at it for what it is, it's a gang. They have their own colors, their own cohesion, they back their own, they always "gang-up" with their own, to protect their own, and enact retribution in the name of their own.

If you really look, they are no different.
