THIS is one of many reasons we NEED UNIONS!!! Holding elected officials accountable is the only way society can prosper. btw, obviously, by Unions I don't mean anything like Teamsters. With today's hindsight and technology we can do far, far better. Socialists that say Capitalism is bad; they have a few good points to make. I mean, look at the "flawed democracy" America's become! (or always was, really) We need capitalism but it needs to reined in and yolked under strict regulations that favor workers as much as it favors shareholders. Equally. Shareholding investors make things happen and regular people make things work. The ideal would be if they're one and the same.
Have you seen TikToks where American workers abroad are shocked at the amazing benefits they recieve from employers in Europe? Strict regulations, unions... It's why Walmart failed in Germany.
