Much thanks to Commentors on Shorter Work week. We had a DSA Mid-West regional conference in Chicago a couple of weeks ago and noted that raising mininmum wage and shorter labor hours may be among the most hopeful POSITIVE messages for progressives now - this from Harold Mayerson. We also did a labor history tour of the Hay Market events which spawned May Day and came out of the 8 hour day movement. Seems to me we might want to tie all this together - resurrect shorter working hours and May Day and Left market deconstruction. In PEN-L Solidarity, Ron Baiman ____________________ Way to go Ron!
