Yeah.. good luck, heh.

And examples.. well I’ve read about the work conditions of Amazon workers, for example. How can that even exist? It’d not be doable here. Not legally.

I assume that the Amazon warehouse conditions are legal because they’ve been talked about so much, and seemingly haven’t improved.

There are plenty of issues you could find… but again unions are legal in every state so the issues are out of band for this discussion, but agreed they need addressing.

Similarly I couldnt support myself off a Dutch wage, I got paid 1/3 the market value int he netherlands… now its closer to 1/10th… So there are some pretty glaring issues in a highly unionized country too.
