Mr Robertson: I agree with you that public invovlement is crucial part of the equation. It is really to bad that too many people are not involved. It is important for those grassroots groups to be at the table, to air their views about how life is in their shoes, how changes or lack of changes effects them.
A capitalist: Workers do have the right to organize, it is law. I wonder what attributes you enjoy in your workplace, thanks to the many workers who stood the line to fight for decent wages, benefits, pensions, vacations, sick time and so on. Come on now fess up!!!!
Many workers today, as those in the temp industry are having some the basic rights you enjoy, denied.
With all that is going on today, I think we may see a insurgence of workers starting to stand together. Maybe it will be part of union reform.
