Olona tshintsho lumangalisayo kwinkqubo kwisiqingatha senkulungwane yokugqibela ibe kukuvela kwezikhulu zenkampani ezifana neAmazon kunye nokuncipha kwemibutho yabasebenzi.

Isiphumo sokungalingani kwamandla kubangele ukungalingani kwengeniso kunye nobutyebi, urhwaphilizo lwedemokhrasi ngemali eninzi, kunye nokulahlwa kwabasebenzi.

Kwiminyaka engamashumi amahlanu eyadlulayo, uGeneral Motors wayengoyena mqeshi mkhulu eMelika. Umsebenzi oqhelekileyo weGM urhole i-35 yeedola ngeyure kwiidola zanamhlanje kwaye wayenelizwi elikhulu malunga neemeko zokusebenza.

Abona baqeshi abakhulu namhlanje Amazon kwaye WalMart, ngamnye ebhatala imali encinane kakhulu ngeyure yaye edla ngokuxhaphaza abasebenzi bakhe, yaye akukho nto ingako banokuyenza.

Umsebenzi we-GM oqhelekileyo "akafanelanga" kakhulu kunomsebenzi wanamhlanje we-Amazon okanye waseWalmart kwaye wayengenakuqonda okubaluleke ngakumbi malunga neemeko zokusebenza.

Umahluko ngabo Abasebenzi beGM babenomanyano olomeleleyo. Baye baxhaswa ngamandla othethwano oluhlangeneyo lwe ngaphezu kwesithathu kubo bonke abasebenzi baseMelika.

Namhlanje, uninzi lwabasebenzi lusebenza lodwa. Kuphela I-6.4% yabasebenzi becandelo labucala laseMelika bamanyene, ukubonelela ngoxinzelelo oluncinci oludibeneyo eAmazon, eWalmart, okanye abanye abaqeshi abakhulu ukuba baphathe abasebenzi babo ngcono.

Kwiminyaka engamashumi amahlanu eyadlulayo, umbutho wabasebenzi wawunempembelelo eyaneleyo yezopolitiko ukuqinisekisa ukuba imithetho yezabasebenzi iyanyanzeliswa nokuba urhulumente watyhala iifemu ezinkulu ezifana neGM ukuze kugcinwe abantu abakumgangatho ophakathi.

Namhlanje, impembelelo yezopolitiko yabasebenzi incinane xa ithelekiswa.

Abona badlali bukhulu bezopolitiko ziinkampani ezinkulu ezifana neAmazon. Baye basebenzisa eso sihlunu sezopolitiko ukuxhasa imithetho "ekunene ukuya emsebenzini", ukunciphisa ukhuseleko lwabasebenzi, kunye nokugcina iBhodi yeSizwe yezoBudlelwane bezaBasebenzi ingenabasebenzi abambalwa kwaye inomthwalo onzima, okubavumela ukuba babaleke amaqhinga amabi emibutho.

Bakwanyanzelise urhulumente ukuba bathobe iirhafu zabo; amazwe akhutshiweyo ukubabonelela ngekhefu lerhafu njengomqathango wokufumana izibonelelo apho; izixeko ezixhatshaziweyo apho zikomkhulu; kunye nezivumelwano zorhwebo ezixubeneyo ezibavumela ukuba bakhuphe imisebenzi emininzi kangangokuba abasebenzi base-blue collar eMelika banakho ukukhetha ngaphandle kokuthatha intlawulo ephantsi, indawo yokugcina uxinzelelo kunye neegigs zokuhambisa.

Owu, kwaye bayityeshele imithetho yokungathembeki, abathi kwixesha langaphambili babenayo iinkampani ezinjengeAmazon kwiindlela zabo zokuwela.

Olu tshintsho lwamandla amashumi eminyaka - ukunyuka kweeleviyathans kunye nokuphela kweemanyano zabasebenzi - kukhokelele ekwabiweni kwakhona okukhulu kwengeniso kunye nobutyebi. Abona bazizityebi yi-0.1% yabantu baseMelika ngoku banobutyebi obuninzi njenge ngaphantsi 90% Dibanisa.

Ukutshintsha kwamandla kunokuguqulwa - kodwa kuphela ngemithetho eyomeleleyo yezabasebenzi ekhokelela kwiimanyano ezininzi, izivumelwano zorhwebo ezingqongqo, kunye nokuzinikela ngokutsha ekungathembeni.

Ulawulo lweBiden kunye neeDemocrats zeCongress zibonakala zizimisele. INdlu isandula ukudlula olona hlengahlengiso lunzima kwizizukulwana ngezizukulwana. Ummeli omtsha weBiden, uthembisa izivumelwano zorhwebo ziya kukhusela iMelika abasebenzi endaweni yokuthumela ngaphandle. Kwaye iBiden ibeka ii-trustbusters izikhundla ezibalulekileyo kwi-Federal Trade Commission nakwi-White House.

Kwaye kulo lonke ilizwe, intshukumo yezabasebenzi iye yanda -ukusuka kumzamo womanyano weAmazon, ukuya kubasebenzi abaphambili abahamba bephuma bebetha befuna intlawulo engcono, izibonelelo, kunye nokhuseleko lokhuseleko.

Ndingathanda ukucinga ukuba iMelika ikwinqanaba lokuncamela elifana nalapho lalikho kwiminyaka eli-120 eyadlulayo, xa ukonakala kunye nokugqithisela kweGold Age kwaqhubela phambili into eyaziwa ngokuba yiProgressive Era. Emva koko, abahlaziyi baphinda baqalisa ukubawa nokungalingani kwaloo mihla baza benza le nkqubo isebenzele abaninzi kunabambalwa.

Asikokubaxa ukuba ngoku siphila kwiXesha leSibini eliGidiweyo. Kwaye amatsha ntliziyo anamhlanje anenkqubela anokuba semngciphekweni wokusingenisa kwiXesha lesiBini leNkqubela. Bafuna yonke inkxaso esinokubanika yona.
