of capitalism. All but the 1% are dispensable - no benefits, no vacations, no healthcare.
Until the 99% wake up and organize together shit like this will happen.
If I had a wife and four children nothing on earth was making me take a job outing dangerous fires without all benefits clearly stated and the dotted line was signed.


As long as our response to attacks on teachers, firemen, police, pensioners (and all the low wage workers who can't feed their families with those salaries) is silence, we will all suffer.
