(en) France, CGA communique: Behind the "dialogue" and "conference" Social capital is the rate that imposes (fr)

As the crisis of capitalism runs, workers in Europe (eg Spain, Greece and Italy) plans
continue to suffer austerity. Of France is not free, although many measures have been
suspended during the time that the electoral circus takes place: rising prices (Especially
gas), freezing wages and minimum social benefits, the destruction public services and
layoffs begins again, barely a month after the elections. ---- So this Thursday, July 12
PSA has finally revealed its plan restructuring: what are 8000 employees, including the
entire 3000 Workers Site of Aulnay, who will be laid at the door, without in the tens of
thousands more in subcontracting companies. This which is only the beginning of a massive
wave of restructuring in which employees, Sanofi like Toulouse, will be the only ones to
suffer.

These announcements came after the close of the "Social Conference" orchestrated
by the new majority government charade intended to
believe that the state is a neutral institution capable of arbitrating impartially
between the conflicting interests defended by labor organizations and
employers.

The only tangible measure that emerges finally is the replacement of higher
VAT from the previous majority by the increase in CSG. If VAT is a tax
particularly unequal, since it weighs more heavily on the poorest,
the increase of the CSG is a "change" in opinion continue, under the pretext of
find new funding for social protection it is well
proportionately reducing employers' social contributions. By claiming to "make
contribution as employers than employees, "it is in fact again
they that go to checkout ...

So it is with remarkable unanimity that the political affairs (the
Right yesterday, as the Left today) agrees that, out of
crisis, we must "reduce the cost of labor" or "reducing burdens on
companies ", ie transform the part of the wealth produced by the
workers who redistributed them indirectly through
social benefits ... into benefits for the employers. There is no better illustration
that state, whatever its political color, is not the guarantor of
social justice, but an instrument to defend the interests of
bourgeoisie.

At the time, in many companies and public services, the
Workers (including trade unionists base) are fighting against the
layoffs or job cuts, the fact that trade union bureaucrats
welcome a resumption of dialogue illustrates the gap between
concerns of the working class and those devices supposed to represent.

Workers, active or not, do not need to talk
with their exploiters they hear daily orders. but
organize collectively to defend their interests. The statements
concern of some politicians or union officials will not replace
never direct action, and controlled by the base in our struggles to build the
ratio of force required to roll back the business and end the
capitalism.

In Aulnay, Toulouse and elsewhere, will pay only the fight!
Against dismissal, taken direct business!
