    Why do you think this is a crisis?

    Considering this is happening in the US, and it’s not a global trend, I don’t think it means much.

      Also not even a crisis in the US. Workers realizing they have choices doesn’t equal a crisis unless you make your money off them.

      US is the heart of the western empire, so it would be significant even if it was only happening in US. However, this is happening in other western countries as well. We’re seeing very similar trends in Canada. There’s also growing civil unrest across western countries. Protests are ongoing in France, UK, Germany, and other countries.

      There is no end in sight for the pandemic, and economic fallout is already staggering. As western economies continue to crumble, that will translate into further unrest across western world.
