They can try it. Those are words of war. I’ll defend the interests of foreign companies before I’ll let our country be debased into a socialism that is indistinguishable from that which we fought during the cold war.
I don’t think anyone wants to replicate the Soviet Union, do they? Either they are stupid, or they have no idea how it actually worked. One had “a job”, a government job of course - but it was assigned - it might mean a commute - and, one couldn’t quit either, nor transfer, etc. “We pretend to work, and they pretend to pay us.”
Unions are in some ways a victim of their own success. Weekends, for one example, are now pretty much standard fare in the US. This isn’t the natural order of things or the default. 80+ hour workweeks used to be standard at some factories. Minimum wages, paid holidays, etc, many of the fought for work conditions have been folded into federal and state laws for all employers whether unionized or not.
I work for a French Company but French standards don’t apply here, nor do I want them to. I prefer to be a part of the most productive unit of our global companies.
