for being elected to government.

You can only burn down the Reichstag so many times before someone catches on.

manufacturing base WITHIN THEIR OWN BORDERS...Isn't that a fresh, revolutionary idea??

of automation they have in relation to the U.S. They have twice the number per capita manufacturing employees.

The odds of getting this stuff is slim to none even with dem victories.

America's smartest become investment bankers or work for homeland security.

Do the scientists at RTP count?

Paying people a fair wage actually doesn't destroy capitalism.

if codetermination had existed in the U.S. in the 1970s-80s as it did in Germany, it might have saved thousands of factories and millions of jobs from decades of offshoring.

from your link:

Workers should automatically be represented in the boardroom.

before even considering hiring applicants but what they fail to realize is if they arent willing to train people themselves they are going to run into problems in the long term.
A good example is meat cutters in grocery stores, alot of the chains want only people with experience but they dont wanna train them.

Especially with kitchen staff. Even down to low-end (non fast food) establishments, they want people coming in with food prep skills and kitchen experience... while paying them near minimum wage... The last thing they want to do is grab a kid out of high school who is interested and give them hands on experience. In the meantime you'd have to pay two people to do the job, them and their trainer/facilitator/et.al. Oh the humanity!!!1!

When you have a society where retirement is possible, expected, prevalent, and well-funded, ageing workers can afford to enjoy their hard-earned retirement and let younger workers start producing and innovating. There are zero downsides to a system that embraces both apprenticeship and incentivizes retirement.

It's all the rage with corporations, not so much with the interns.
