The power dynamic between labor and capital (or managers in this case) in the US has shifted so much since our grandparents generation.
It’s hard to ignore it now. Our rights and safety nets have been stripped away. 40+ years of trickle down economics and other failed neoclassical/neoliberal economic theory have directly caused the situation we are in.
- onlyrealcuzzo 2y agoAre you seriously making an argument that workers have worse conditions now than in the 60s? Feel free to make an argument that we are moving in the wrong direction NOW, but not that we have moved in the wrong direction entirely since the 60s.

- onlyrealcuzzo 2y ago"40+" not "40 exactly". Are you implying that you agree things were worse in the 60s, but somehow magically at their prime in 85? Or are you just being pedantic?
