The best way to unionize is to follow what Mahatma Gandhi did: Non-cooperation movement.

It consists of two broad strategies:

1. Consumer Non-Cooperation (Boycott): Boycott of stuff sold, or given by these companies, irrespective of how attractive it is.

2. The Constructive Program (Self-Reliance): Building and supporting alternatives, even if they cost you a little bit more.

All it needs is little self-discipline and a very very tiny bit of sacrifice on daily basis.

We are headed there.


The individual self discipline is great but the “collective” in collective leverage is what makes all the difference.
