Joe Biden is a great president.
I'm in a job that's unionized for the first time in my life. It's awesome. Get fucked, repubs.
Yeah but something something train workers who still got almost everything they were demanding anyways because Biden personally negotiated on their behalf after stopping them from striking leading to supply chain chaos right before the holiday season, quite possibly the single worst time imagineable for supply chain chaos.
More leftist than thou types are gonna see Biden literally mandate buyouts of productive assets for transfer to the working class and will have a hissy fit about how he's basically the same as the American Neo-Nazi movement because he didn't seize the assets while lining the former owners up against a wall for mass execution to be watched by their families and loved ones who's eyelids were surgically removed for the purpose of being able to force them to watch.
The issue isn't whether or not they ended up getting it, the issue is that the government will forcibly end strikes that are too dangerous to the economy. Yknow, the entire point of strikes.
Luckily, it worked out this time. What needs to happen is the removal of the government's power to end rail strikes in the first place.
Like I said, "literally the same as hitler because he intervened to prevent supply chain chaos right before it would have done nothing for rail workers but get everyone unimaginably upset with them."
I'm so glad unions are mandatory in Europe.
They are stronger and more common, but unfortunately they are not mandatory, at least not everywhere.
I'm so glad unions are much more prevalent in Europe.
Mandatory in what way?I live in Europe and I’ve never heard of that. Which country? Which industry?
In France when a business reaches a certain size there's a whole host of mandatory committees and stuff they have to get going
I agree with the sentiment all around, but this bar graph is fucking manipulative trash.
Unless it's the rail unions I guess.
