Corporations have become globalized so they can play one group of workers against another. They would threaten countries if they don’t lower their safety standards and the workers lowered their wages or they will go to another country that will. I heard one story where a woman in Bangladesh formed a union of her colleagues to get one penny more per shirt that she made in a sweat shop so that she could give her children meat with their rice, it shouldn’t have made the shirts more than a penny more, but Wal-Mart told them that they would pay 2 cents less per shirt or Wal-Mart would take their business to another country. This is the kind of distortion they play on the workers of the world.
It is time for the workers of the world to Globalize and strike for safely Standards and living wages. First workers must be able to commutate, to this end laptops should be giving to poor workers with training on how to use them. If workers can commutate they will learn that they have some of the same goals, and then they can take action to obtain them. It will take time, but it will be worth it.
