What recent technological changes mandates reverting labour laws? To me that argument just sounds like throwing some buzzword in front of legislators that are scared of being perceived as obsolete.
- rorykoehler 6y agoWe need to unburden ourselves of having so many laws. Especially laws that are to fix inherent flaws of our economic system design. Better to change the systems design. Labour laws are only necessary because most people are in dire financial straits if they aren’t working. Give people the power to turn down employment without risking ruin and the whole power dynamic that makes these labour laws necessary goes away.
- cloudfifty 6y agoIf what you are referring to is a proper UBI that covers all necessities I would agree with you. But that would indeed change the power dynamic radically in favour of workers so I'm not sure how that would be passed without more or less a revolution.
