Wowsa. The political May Day began as a commemoration of a General Strike in the USA in 1886? Don't be pulling my leg, but it's true! See here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Workers%27_Day

So how come it's such a tepid little affair marked by little more than chants and denigrations of the capitalist paradigm? Come along on an Oh Such a Salvage of Labor Day walking tour that means to kick your mental booty into a gallop that celeritously returns May Day to good health.

Cautiously dubbed "San Francisco Social Movements," the walking tour in fact presents the case for treating the Earth as the birthright of productive activity, making the case for abolishing landlordism for being the fundamental enemy of labor going to work to satisfy itself.

Through 11 social movement stories, the argument is made that Labor will experience no poverty so long as the product of labor is kept by Labor . . . and that the necessary workplace of Labor, namely the Earth, is treated as a commonwealth the value of which is paid to society just as that value is appropriated by the landowner of record.
