He still has more decision making power than anyone I’ve ever met and probably ever will meet.

And their decisions equate to: how can we employ the fewest number of people with the least benefits and make the most profit off what we’re selling?
But definitely don’t consider that under- or unemployed people don’t have the money to spend on making those profits happen.

Until enough of us say that we don’t care what they think, and we demand better.

So unionization?
TheRaven@lemmy.ca 11 months ago

Unions are tragically toothless when the federal government can just decide a planned strike is illegal.
MegaUltraChicken@lemmy.world 11 months ago
More unions need to coordinate and actually create threat of a general strike. The UAW ending their contract on May Day and calling for others to do the same actually seems like a pretty good way to leverage power. I don’t think the government can move quick enough to block that kind of collective action.
