:22:01
are still among the lowest in France,
:22:03
with a national average
of 4.80 francs an hour.
:22:08
I have the figures here.
:22:11
Here at Salumi, a laborer
makes 3.45 + 0.62 francs an hour.
:22:17
An unskilled worker
makes 3.94 + 0.74.
:22:22
A skilled worker
makes 4.45 + 0.90.
:22:28
A highly skilled worker
makes from 5.37 to 6.04.
:22:36
The food industry stuffs
the bosses and CEOs
:22:38
while it underfeeds the workers.
:22:43
We at the CGT maintain
:22:45
that industrial concentration
calls for a united strategy
:22:49
that allows agreements
between multiple sectors,
:22:53
combined with individual riders
for each sector or factory.
:22:57
We also maintain that irresponsible
actions like those of this morning
:23:02
threaten our overall strategy,
:23:05
which is the only one capable
of influencing management.
:23:10
Of course the problem is larger
than that, even political.
:23:14
There's no true solution
to workers' hopes and dreams
:23:18
under the current system,
:23:20
where a few capitalists impose
their law of monopolistic profits.
:23:27
To make possible
a social policy for the people,
:23:30
we have to set up
a true democracy in this country.
:23:35
For this, we need
a government of the people
:23:39
that combines the forces of blue-collar
and white-collar workers,
:23:43
both rural and urban,
believers and nonbelievers,
:23:46
all those who labor under the stifling
control of monopolistic capitalism.
:23:53
Hey, here comes Stacquet.
:23:56
Take it easy!
