Technically? Nothing. But a culture that forgot the value of labor organizing and embraced the fantasy of rugged individualism needs a fresh education on labor rights. That’s what Wolff does with his organization Democracy at Work:

EDIT: There is more to it than this. There is a whole spectrum of laws common in other countries that could help. For example both unions and cooperatives could help. In Germany it is law that large corporations must have board seats for union representatives. A move like that would help grow labor power and ultimately benefit cooperatives. But there is a pretty significant effort ongoing to quash labor organizing efforts in the USA. Amazon, Walmart, and even Google fight against labor organizers and fire them the first chance they get. They have decided that their profit margins are more important than labor rights, and they’re investing a lot in anti organizing efforts.
