"..."stagehands" working gigs like this make union scale wages and have pretty decent working conditions and all sorts of job security from their strong union affiliations.

Moore speaks out for the working class who lose their jobs because of layoffs and downsizing due to corporate greed and efforts to maximize profits (and create huge CEO salaries) at the expense of workers.

These conditions do not tend to affect the entertainment industry's union-scale workers in the same way."




Oh.

I see.

Thanks Peg. I didn't understand. I always thought the term "Working Class" included union workers. And people who work. It's the unemployed worker who USED to work who makes up the working class.

Got it.
Thanks.
