read the room lmao
Don’t use that anti-union dog whistle.
How about the right to a decent wage and safe working conditions? Because "right to work" without those things is just forced labor (slavery).
How do those bootheels taste?
I keep thinking that strikes being illegal is way too close to slavery for my liking.
Striking has always been the compromise. The owner class has forgotten.
I'm hyped for the wave of reminders
Illegal strikes, lol.
What a ridiculous concept.

Might be the excuse Krasnov is looking for to take back the Canal Zone.
So, where are they getting replacement workers?
Don't worry, AI and teslabots will surely replace them! /s

It's global. Denmark just increased retirement age by 3 years. The UK is trying their best to serve their wealthy masters and worsen their system. The fascists running the US right now claim social security is "insolvent" but have passed decades of giveaways to wealthy and corporations instead of funding social security and many other basics....all on the eve of trillions in giveaways of their proposed budget.
fucking late stage capitalism.
when even the empire's citizens get fucked.
