Workers occupy a factory...
...in 1936, 2008.
Looks like the economic crisis isn't going to be as free from labor unrest as folks have been saying. This will be the tip of the iceberg, I guarantee. This occupation is peaceful, so far, but as conditions get worse, so will violence.
Support unions and pro-labor politicians.
If you really want to get your mind blown (and have 45 or so minutes to spare), check out UMASS economics professor Rick Wolff on the economic crises and a socialist solution:
