US and Chinese naval vessels in near-collision
By Tom Peters
Reports surfaced last Friday that the US guided missile cruiser USS Cowpens nearly collided with a Chinese naval landing vessel in the South China Sea on December 5. While the collision was avoided, the incident is another warning of the dangers of conflict and war posed by rising tensions in East Asia.
A US military official told Stars and Stripes that the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) vessel was “moving to impede and (...)

Par Peter Sysmonds
Le gouvernement Obama, travaillant main dans la main avec les médias américains, a ouvert un nouveau front dans sa campagne agressive contre la Chine. Une série d’articles, notamment dans le New York Times, est apparue au cours de la semaine passée pour soi-disant révéler l’implication de l’armée chinoise dans le piratage d’entreprises américaines et donner des indications sur la menace de (...) -

By Tom Carter
On Wednesday, at the request of the Obama administration, US federal judge Colleen McMahon relied on expansive “national security” privileges to deny requests by the American Civil Liberties Union and the New York Times for government records related to the assassination of US citizens.

11 May 2017, by Robert ParisRepublican health care bill targets millions with preexisting conditions
By Kate Randall In a White House Rose Garden victory rally Thursday following the House of Representatives’ passage of the Republicans’ American Health Care Act (AHCA), President Donald Trump called the measure “a great plan” and declared, “Yes, premiums will be coming down; yes, deductibles will be coming down.”
Such shameless lies are being used to promote a thoroughly regressive bill that builds on the (...) -

19 April 2013, by Robert ParisGeneral Motors in drive to cut skilled trades jobs in US plants
By Shannon Jones - WSWS
General Motors is seeking to eliminate skilled trades jobs at its factories as part of a drive to cut costs and eliminate higher paid workers who currently earn $32 an hour. The economics are simple. According to a 2011 estimate by the Center for Automotive Research in Ann Arbor, Michigan, GM saves an estimated $57,000 a year for every skilled trades worker it replaces with a new hire making the (...) -
Working More for Less Than Ever Before
18 January 2013, by Robert ParisWorking More for Less Than Ever Before
In the last week, the government has released reports which show the rate of workers’ wages and the productivity of workers. The numbers could not possibly be more striking. In the last decades not only have workers’ wages stayed flat or started to fall, but employers are getting more and more out of the work that each of us does. It couldn’t be clearer. This is how the rich get richer – they make us do more work for less money.
Up until 1975, (...) -
The Two Americas
4 July 2017, by Robert ParisThe Two Americas
Comrade chairman, delegates and friends:
We meet in national convention at a time of the gravest world crisis—a crisis which contains the direct threat of a third and more terrible world war. The basic causes of this world crisis are no mystery.
The first cause is the breakdown of capitalism throughout Europe—and Asia—and the colonial lands. The working people want peace and bread, which capitalism cannot give. The colonial slaves don’t want to be slaves any more—and (...) -
The class struggle, Jack London
2 October 2013, by Robert ParisUnfortunately or otherwise, people are prone to believe in the reality of the things they think ought to be so. This comes of the cheery optimism which is innate with life itself; and, while it may sometimes be deplored, it must never be censured, for, as a rule, it is productive of more good than harm, and of about all the achievement there is in the world. There are cases where this optimism has been disastrous, as with the people who lived in Pompeii during its last quivering days; or (...)

2014 – Let’s Make It Our Year!
7 January 2014, by Robert Paris2014 – Let’s Make It Our Year!
Looking back on 2013, it was a year of records. The capitalist class – the owners of the banks and corporations – brought in record amounts of wealth. Their profits have hit an all-time record in this country, making up over 70 percent of the GDP (the gross domestic product – all wealth produced in one year). Companies are making the most amount of money since anytime after 1947 – the year that records started to be kept.
Banks alone made record amounts (...) -
