Around it is the warehouse, in front of it is capital, behind it is the yellow union, above it is silent politics.<br \/>\nWhat is happening in Turkey today is not a wage negotiation.<br \/>\nThis is the bankruptcy of an organized labor regime.<\/p>\n<h3>The Lie of Affordability: Where is the Real Price Being Paid?<\/h3>\n<p>Market shelves are full.<br \/>\nThe ads are bright.<br \/>\n<strong>\u201cdiscount\u201d, \u201ccheapest\u201d, \u201cpeople-friendly price\u201d<\/strong> everywhere.<br \/>\nBut nobody is saying this:<br \/>\nThis cheapness is not produced at the checkout.<br \/>\nIt is produced in the warehouse.<br \/>\nMigros, B\u0130M and A101 follow the same model:<br \/>\n10-12 hour shifts<br \/>\nSalaries slightly above the minimum wage<br \/>\nNet income eroded by tax brackets<br \/>\nSubcontracted warehouse labor<br \/>\nContinuous speed, performance and printing<br \/>\nThis is a<strong> \u201ccompetition imperative\u201d<\/strong> It isn't.<br \/>\nThis is a conscious class choice.<br \/>\nCheapness is not a favor to the consumer;<br \/>\nIt is a subsidy to capital.<\/p>\n<h3>The Warehouse: The Secret Factory of This Order<\/h3>\n<p>Warehouses are today's factories.<br \/>\nThere is no chimney, the smoke is invisible.<br \/>\nThe warehouse worker does not only carry parcels:<br \/>\nCarries the burden of inflation<br \/>\nCarries the price of wrong economic policies<br \/>\nCarries the silence of politics<br \/>\nSo when the warehouse worker stands up,<br \/>\nactually speaks to everyone.<\/p>\n<h3>What Do Workers Want?
