    And Margaret Thatcher was doing her own disassembly of worker’s rights. They enabled each other, but one wasn’t wholly dependent on the other for their actions.

      We don’t have to coerce others directly, we appeal to the greed and powerlust of leaders of other markets, let their powerful do the coercion of their people and change their protections, and the global markets have a new workforce and resource market to exploit and extract value from. Everybody* wins.

      Everybody that already holds power and/or meaningful capital anyway, and that’s all that matters. Fuck the livestock.

      One way or another, the global capital market must continue to grow/metastasize… on a finite world, with finite resources, and a sole, shared, COMMUNal environment we all rely on from one breath to the next. Yeah…
