the front of the employers. At the end of the day, the first thing
        the employers wanted to do as to steal the labour of the workers.
        The labour of the workers is capital to the bosses. Because stealing
        the labour of the workers is not a crime. There is no chance of
        paying the debt to the company that bought it because the firm
        had a cheque or vouchers and immediately invoked the bailiff pro-

        cedure. State institutions can immediately invoke bailiff proce-
        dures. But for workers to invoke bailiff procedures takes two years
        in the most favourable scenario. The worker can press charges,
        win, the boss appeals to the Supreme Court and in the most
        favourable circumstance it goes on for another two years. Interest-
        free, risk-free capital! The bosses saw the workers’ claims, then
        threw them out of work, then took away the machinery and prop-

        erty. And the worker is then left with his or her labour. Naturally
        FORBES, the magazine of the bosses, took interest in the Kazova
        resistance. Or to be more precise, they were interested in the stage
        the resistance has reached. Because the resistance has reached the
        stage of the workers occupying and beginning production for
        themselves. Workers had started production for themselves in a
        factory whose machines had been taken away. From the bosses’
        viewpoint, this is a big risk. The Kazova workers’ resistance is not
        a good example from the point of view of the bosses. It is an ex-
        ample they want to know and recognise, probably so that they can

        take precautions and prevent this kind of resistance. At the same
        time  the  resistance  was  so  strong  and  legitimate  that  even
        FORBES magazine had to report it. This is the strength of resist-
        ance. It continues to overcome all obstacles in its way.

            Victory Will Go To The Heroic Kazova Workers
