michael_f_dickey@groton.pfizer.com quoted: "The capitalist workplace is
profoundly undemocratic. Indeed, as Noam Chomsky points out, the oppressive
authority relations in the typical corporate hierarchy would be called
fascist or totalitarian if we were referring to a political system.
Did Chomsky ever hold a job even once in his life? Believe me as
employee and employer I have always been aware of the the employees ability
to bargain. This is true with or without a union.
Any employer that abuses his workers will soon find the good ones have
left him and been welcomed with open arms elsewhere. Sometimes an employer
or an employee can find a short run advantage in the bargaining process but
it never lasts -- as they say what goes around comes around.
