Sorry, following dangs guidelines and didn’t even register the not so subtle call for violence ;)

  I was not calling for violence. But having companies continually violate the law, and having no real repurcussions does create a very BAD situation. People pushed into a corner react very badly. And perhaps companies can go back to WHY the NLRB was created, and what the before-times was like. I particularly don't want to go back to that. And you can be reminded with a history lesson and education, and not shooting up the bosses house. You all also broke HN guidance by assuming the worst of me too.

    Okay, sorry again. It’s a nice conversational thread nevertheless. The interesting question is why the US followed a different trajectory irt unions than the rest of the west. And the thing is that even people in dark corners usually don’t react darkly. That’s pretty much what saves civilization imho. That even the bottom 1% doesn’t go all out on the rest. People stand a lot of abuse and still keep their head up. I agree that workers right shouldn’t be an afterthought.
