I have been involved with the semi conductor industry for over 20 years, salaries ten plus years ago were in the mid twenties for our production workers, now it is in the mid teens and dropping. Robots are increasingly taking the production jobs, and lowering the human wages.

Work with the Union and become politically active in organizing others and getting people to the polls and taking part in the political process. Educate your fellow workers and get them motivated to take part in politics and get active in the Democratic Party since there is no viable socialist party.

Stay close to family and get your friends and neighbors active in the political process.

Houses were once built by people swinging hammers, now there are air nailers allowing faster construction with less manpower. Every business will adopt new technology if it increases productivity, workers have to evolve, adapt, or perish.
