MikeDunnAuthorToday in Labor History March 20, 1985: The Bolivian authorities sent in the army to crush a General Strike. Workers had launched the strike in response to austerity measures by the Siles Zuazo administration. They demanded higher wages, stable food supplies, price controls and the president’s resignation. At the time, inflation was 3,400%. 10,000 miners filled the streets of La Paz each day. The General Strike lasted 16 days and spread to Santa Cruz and Chuquisaca. On March 24, the miners accepted a government offer to quadruple the minimum wage. They eventually forced Zuazo to resign.<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/workingclass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#workingclass</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LaborHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LaborHistory</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/bolivia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bolivia</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/GeneralStrike" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GeneralStrike</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/minimumwage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#minimumwage</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/austerity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#austerity</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/inflation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#inflation</a>

MikeDunnAuthorToday in Labor History February 26, 1941: 14,000 workers struck at Bethlehem Steel’s Lackawanna mill in Buffalo, New York. As a defense contractor, the company had $1.5 billion worth of armament orders, but refused to pay the minimum wage mandated for government contracts. Furthermore, they had recently fired 1,000 workers, blaming their last work stoppage for damaging some coke ovens. The pickets effectively stopped scabs from getting in. After less than 2 days, the company agreed to rehire the fired men and began talks on a raise and union recognition. However, a month later, they reneged.<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/workingclass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#workingclass</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LaborHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LaborHistory</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/strike" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#strike</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/bethlehem" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bethlehem</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/steel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#steel</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/minimumwage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#minimumwage</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/scab" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#scab</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/wwii" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#wwii</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/newyork" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#newyork</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/buffalo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#buffalo</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/union" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#union</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/wages" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#wages</a>

Scott 🏴😷First, don't bother trying to start an argument about this with me, I will fucking block you, lmao.Second, I challenge you to compare some highlights from my trip to PriceRite last night to your local grocery store and see if you pay a similar amount. Our minimum wage here is $15.50, set to rise again next year.Four red bananas: 85¢ Half gallon of ice cream: $3 lemon pound cake: $2.69 birch beer: $1I also got halal chicken thighs for $1.79/lb & more. The produce there is some of the best and freshest around, with lots of stuff you don't usually see in typical American groceries.This is partially just saying PriceRite is awesome. But also, I know damn well the same job I do (or the grocery store workers, for that matter) for $15.50 an hour pays less than $10/hour 200 miles south of here, and the worker earning that is paying at least as much for their groceries, similar rent, similar utilities, more for gas (PA has higher gas taxes than NY) and receives similar benefits from their government: the same bumpy roads, unreliable public transportation, etc.Labor power is where it's at of course when it comes to wages, but don't let anyone fucking argue that a HIGH minimum wage isn't good for everyone.----Side note: for some reason when I was thinking about this I became worried someone would come back at me with "well NY must just be mooching off PA through the federal government" and no, NY residents pay $3.94 in federal taxes for each dollar in benefits received, while in PA it's $3.34.<a href="https://datawrapper.dwcdn.net/D8skF/2/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://datawrapper.dwcdn.net/D8skF/2/</a><a href="https://tams.tech/tags/economics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#economics</a> <a href="https://tams.tech/tags/minimumWage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#minimumWage</a> <a href="https://tams.tech/tags/labor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#labor</a> <a href="https://tams.tech/tags/politics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#politics</a>

Maggie MaybeYou guys, the house bill to increase minimum wage didn’t die. It’s actually still moving. I don’t even work and I think I’m going to cry right now this is amazing.Minimum wage in New Hampshire is still $7.25 an hour. We don’t even have apartments that are $825 a month anymore, but when I moved into this place that was the rent and if I had to earn 3 1/2 times the rent I would’ve had to make more than $34,000 a year to qualify to apply.This is why there are so many homeless people. Once you lose your home it’s almost impossible to get into a new one especially for elderly or disabled people, and single parents. They need two bedrooms which means they need more income.💚🎊🎉🍾<a href="https://legiscan.com/NH/bill/HB726/2025" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://legiscan.com/NH/bill/HB726/2025</a><a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/NH" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NH</a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/MinimumWage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MinimumWage</a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/HB726" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HB726</a>
