What do you think drives workers rights legislation?
Nothing. 7.25/hr with no sick/vacation time or insurance/retirement of any kind isn't exactly winning
Pray tell, when did the big old dick of American legislature start to turn against unions? Oh about the time 7.25 was legislated to be the minimum wage.
Read. Educate yourself.
You believe the propaganda that they feed you. Stop being ignorant.
Wanting better rights for workers is me being fed propaganda...
What is it when you do it?
You’re not fucking listening dude. I tried being nice and explaining it to you but you just double down on “wE NeEd MoRe LaBouR lAwS” as if that isn’t fucking obvious.
That will never happen without unions. Whether or not you want to admit it, you NEED unions.
If you can’t accept that then fuck off and don’t bother responding anymore.
So you agree! Thank you, it is obvious we need better labor laws. I thought we were going to continue to butt heads for a little bit. Glad you came around. See, I'm listening.
You just earned yourself a block.
Learn how to communicate with people.
Enjoy your 7.25.
Keep on fighting the good fight lol you earned me that 7.25
