Outside of bloated investment into AI, healthcare is the only sector in our economy that is growing. Leftists should support rank-and-file struggles in the hospital, or join them with life-long careers as shop floor activists.
My latest on how nurses are leading the US labor movement.
Young people eager for a comfortable career resistant to automation and the chance to join a vibrant labor movement would do well to consider a nursing career.

I think any discussions about membership growth in DSA, either nationally or local chapters, needs to be paired alongside the number of present and expected lapsed members, and renewal rates.
@oliviakatbi I believe the use of the word "revolutionary" here is meant to be synonymous with "anti-capitalist." For ex., the way Bernie Sanders talked about needing a political revolution. It's a more evocative way to represent the broad group of people dissatisfied with the status quo.

"They have forced national attention on Israelโs genocide in Palestine, and built support from unions that are now promising to defend free speech for Palestinian freedom with picket lines," Labor Notes organizer @TRAILSANDWAYS wrote for @jacobin on Gaza solidarity encampments:
Worker struggle against bosses in the private sector can cause a crisis for the capitalist class. Worker struggle against bosses in the public sector can cause a crisis for the capitalist class. Worker struggle against bosses (members & their reps) in the democratic socialist
The argument made here is that staff unions in truly democratic membership orgs and workers in the public sector both confront the same kind of boss. But that assumes that elected officials in the US government have real democratic legitimacy. That's wrong.
