The court (and Amazon etc.) need to be made to understand that the alternative to the NLRB is that the workers strike anyway, violently.
Edit: I accidentally some words.
It isn’t the workers who bring the violence. The police work for the capitalist class, and their true purpose is to break strikes by any means necessary. History of union busting in the United States
I've said it before... total free market rule is a great solution, as long as you're also ok with occasional uprisings where the masses go around beheading the corrupt. As far as I'm concerned... that is a market force.
Alternately, we can have government protections and labor organizations. I feel like that usually works better.
I'm really not sure how to express how disgusted and angry that these "people" keep getting to pull this level of bullshit.
What realistic responses do we have left for them before the french method is all that is left?
We're out of "realistic responses" that aren't going full Louverture, I fear. Koupe tet, boule kay.
Man I remember when trader Joe's was a good place to work where people stayed for the long haul once they got in. They were kinda the place that employees at other supermarkets aspired to move up to.
How things change.
I can't believe I'm living through this shit
The freedom of slave owners to own slaves is being threatened by those pesky slaves who think they should have rights.
/s but not really
It's not fair to rich people.
My hammer and sickle is very hot right now.
I'm conflicted. I automatically downvote all links to X, but Americans need all the support they can get when it comes to unions. On the other hand, I don't know what NLRB is... and if people are too lazy to spell out acronyms, I'm too lazy to Google. Not so conflicted anymore.
You your sake I hope you're trolling since the alternative is this is who you actually are.
Not trolling, no. I just have a pet peeve against the use acronyms that come without context. In this case, I'm being a doofus, because this is in unions@, and it is reasonable to assume everyone knows that there. I suppose the real pet peeve is being a bad communicator. It's more common to see people use acronyms because they think it conveys knowledge of the topic. I was also caught in a bit of a bad mood. I'm a bit tired of American culture and politics. It reaches a certain point, where it's just... too dumb. E.g. the issue at hand here. I wish you guys the best, the US sure as hell needs it to stall the eventual conclusion of capitalism.
