Today in Labor History March 31, 1927: Cesar Chavez was born. Famous for his role in leading the United Farm Workers and, now, even more infamous for his sexual assaults on women and girls in the movement, it should be pointed out that there were numerous other abusive and rotten aspects to his leadership style that affected both women and men. For example, in 1967, he launched his first of several purges of the UFW, ostensibly to remove Communists. However, there was no evidence of communist infiltration of the union and it was most likely a move to solidify his autocratic rule.

In the 1970s, he blamed “illegal immigrants” and “wetbacks” for UFW failures and launched the "Illegals Campaign" to identify illegal migrants so that they could be deported. His cousin Manuel Chavez established a UFW patrol, or "wet line," along Arizona's border with Mexico to stop illegal migration into the US. Actions such as these led to conflicts with many progressive groups that had previous collaborated with the UFW, including the National Lawyers Guild and the Confederation of Mexican Workers.

In 1977, Chavez became infatuated with the religious cult, Synanon and used Synanon’s “game” to punish union members and enforce conformity and obedience to his authority by subjecting members to harsh, profanity-laced criticism from the rest of the community.

He also expressed support for the brutal Filipino dictator Ferdinand Marcos, and specifically his declaration of martial law, which alienated Filipino members of the union, as well as many of the religious organizations that had supported the UFW. Ironically, Chavez had originally travelled to the Philippines in order to win back support of Filipino farmworkers. And, contrary to the official mainstream narrative, it wasn’t even Chavez who had started the UFW, or the Delano Grape Strike. Rather the 1965 grape strike had been initiated by Larry Itliong and the Filipino-led AWOC. The nationwide protest lasted five years and ended with the first union contract for U.S. farm workers outside of Hawaii.

Saying #capitalism is the best because look at how well the west is doing is like saying Stalinist #communism is the best because look at how well #Moscow is doing. In the Soviet union, all the best stuff went to Moscow extracted from the rest of the nation. Local governments were manipulated, controlled and coerced. It had democracy in name only. Like the Roman empire, The rest of the nation served as the pleasure of Moscow. It is still this case today in modern capitalist Russia.
In the west, All the best stuff in the world goes to the west, extracted from the rest of the world. Foreign governments are manipulated, controlled and coerced. Many have democracy in name only or had democracy until we couped them out for being too democratic and the people wanted to keep their own stuff instead of it being extracted so the west got all the benefit out of it. Capitalism works on extraction, just like the Stalinist model. We just don't see it because the people we are exploiting to be able to waste half of what we get and make, which is called the banality of evil where boring things that everyone in the chain of responsibility benefits from, can cause people at each link in the chain to bend morality just a little so that if the chain is long enough can be catastrophic for the people down stream.
We need a non-extractive system, where waste isn't used as a way to make people buy things they don't need. Where people get paid for the labor and resources. Where pre-distribution exists, and no one has the power to steal labor and resources from an another nation. Only then will we be able to find out what the best system is. Life is great for many under capitalism just as it was for many under Stalinism, but terrible for way more people.

Today in Labor History March 30, 1930: Hundreds of thousands of unemployed workers demonstrated in thirty cities. 35,000 marched in New York City and were violently assaulted by the police. At the time, there was virtually no formal aid available for the unemployed or poor. The ruling elite feared that workers would choose the dole over work if given the choice. So, they opposed unemployment insurance. Even the AFL opposed unemployment insurance because it saw itself as the representative of skilled workers only. It didn’t care about unskilled factory workers. The demonstrations were organized by the Communist Party, with the goal of overthrowing capitalism.
