Re: Unions "bourgeois" politics







Mr. Burford,




Unionism does not inherently embrace the wage system. Unionism can
fight for abolition to wages on both a syndicalist and a socialist basis. As
bad as unions may be, they only reflect the current reality of a proletariat
dominated by capital. Unions are the most dialectically advanced social
organ since they are economically based in formal opposition to capital.
Political parties, on the other hand, only deal with the state, and thereby
oppose capital indirectly.
