Exactly - so they can't just all collectively agree to stop; that's an impossible level of coordination, akin to a General Strike (hey wait a minute!)
We coordinate on what's allowed and what's not via the government. Large groups pressure said government to legislate in their interest because bosses aren't just going to agree to let people stop overworking.
- mathverse 5y agoKoreans are the most collectivist people I know.They can collectively stop being harsh on each other. Government can help but it is not a silver bullet.This has been proven many times in the history when the gov tried to do something about it.
- beaconstudios 5y agoBeing collectivist does not overcome the coordination hurdle; it just means you are more group-oriented than self-oriented. It's not like they have a telepathic link where they can all just agree to simultaneously stop working overtime.
