global wage for village idiots

 check out 

what the A F L  executive council
 
  THINKS MAKES WEIGHT 
AS 
   A GLOBAL WAGE  STRATEGY 

==========================



 "The dialogue 
over raising living standards 
for average workers 
in the global economy 
must begin immediately 






– with our own government, 
with our international trade union allies,
 and other partners.
  < uncle   ? >

 Ongoing and future trade negotiations 
must address improving workers’ rights
 and minimum wage provisions.

  


 In multilateral and regional trade negotiations,
 the United States 
           should lead

  < notice
that ferocious "must"
as it approaches
closer
to  
both uncle sam
and 
the real  world market
 is now a 
             "should" >




the effort 

< effort>

for the development 
and adoption 
                 of 
an International Minimum Wage (IMW). 


< love the A-breev IMW >


The IMW will help 
to ensure
 that trade is truly 
a force for progress,
 rather than 
a competitive attack
 on wages and living standards.

 < right on brothers
 but  err ummm   ...>

International negotiations 
should develop 
a fair and transparent process
 for determining 
the appropriate minimum wage
  for each country

< thank god
 our A F L x-council  
             isn't calling for 
        " dark and unjust "processes >



 The international minimum wage 
would be different for each country,
 
  < in other words
no international minimum wage
just higher  minimums
for presently
 lower end type  national 
minimum wages >

based on 
its development level 
and
 standard of living. 

  < this is the part that really zings ya
                        like guys "give with the formula here"

its like the old joke
want a good government
thats easy

just 
stop producing selfish fucking brats
and 
start producing little angels 
after a few generations 
things 'll get real swell 

one imagines      low level
                                             is belower then  american 
                        to get there?
    just give the laggers
         a little tootz now and again  >

The International Labor Organization (ILO),
 trade unions, and global union federations 
should be integrally involved in this process.

   < as opposed to  dis-integrally uninvolved process
we got now thru exchange rate shimming and shamming 
thanx to 
 the deep dark and wally boy
stoogy " central bankers" >

 The goal is to ensure 
that rising wages
 and living standards
 promote the growth 
            of 
the middle class. "

 < well  thats a nice goal
rememberin
in afl speak
middle means wage 
at least 
for once 
the appeal
isn't being made
on behalf
of  the fucking 
global  toiling poor
  but the wagery
 
woikers of da woild

here comes 
             YER    IMW 

coming soon 
to  all  job sites near u 

local rates and rules may vary 
void where prohibited  >
