US ending child labour laws, tariff depestation Garland Nixon and Joti Brar Ep 33

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Ucz1MbitUc&t=3s&ab_channel=ProletarianTV Today I (Joti Brar) spoke with Garland Nixon about how the Trump regime’s theatre over immigration and tariffs is likely to accelerate rather than hold back the decline of US imperialism. We talked about the capitalists’ inexorable drive to find the cheapest possible labour-power. This is what drives the export of industries to where labour, land and raw materials are cheaper. And it is also what drives the need for ILLEGAL (ie, hyper-exploitable) immigration. Florida’s plan to reverse child labour laws is a perfect illustration of this need. The employers have neither the intention nor the ability to pay living wages to US adults, so now they have set their eyes on working-class kids as a cheap source of hyper-exploitable non-unionised labour. We talked about the education system under conditions of declining imperialism and the difference between a socialist approach to work and education and what is allowed to workers under capitalism. And we discussed the way that constant immigration hysteria is used to keep the working class divided against itself, allowing the capitalists to maintain themselves in power and force workers to bear the burden of the system’s economic crisis. ______________________________________________ Subscribe!
