i think bringing new economic forms and structures to the USA, which
erase traditional old American worker-owner relationships-- like
coops, worker-ownership, bartering, professionalism, volunteerism,
and socialism-- are more "hackery" than the 200-year-old labor-union
paradigm. <br>
<br>
Not saying organizing is not relevant and valuable-- just that it's
not "hacking on the future of labor" as much as developing
alternative economic structures which redefine labor, ownership,
etc. <br>
<br>
Organizing seems (to me) more like entrenchment, than innovation.
Critical to protect workers, just not hackery. <br>
