France is beginning to move toward a General Strike !

Oil refiners of several refineries have been striking for 3 weeks. With the oil shortage oncoming, the government decided to requisition the strikers and force them to come back to work instead of forcing Total to raise the wages This very dangerous government's move convinced the main union (the CGT) to withdraw from negociations with the government and call to strike. Many other workers decided to strike against this move : the second biggest refinery, one of the last remaining refineries not striking entered the movement Marseilles' and Le Havre's dockers entered the strike, several Nuclear plants also entered the movement Many supermarkets also joined and among railway workers, the anger is growing too Sadly several other unions submitted to the bourgeois and are negotiating with them Anyway it could be the beginning of a general strike in France ! Workers of the World unite !

Hello everyone, I’m 14 and I have some questions.

Lately, my mom has been badgering me to get a job and she says I should because I'm 14 and that's the legal age to work. Not to be entitled, but to me this is bullshit. I'm 14, aren't I technically a child? Am I allowed to work? Because she's forcing me into this and I don't want to get a job yet 🙁 ​ Thanks to those who respond.

Minimum wages in the Netherlands. This assumes a 40 hour work week, 8 hours a day. A 15 year old earns more than a adult working in the catering in the US
