"Should"
The USA left "should" in about 1950. There is no "should" here.
Workers were abandoned by the Democrats long ago. Union membership is now less than 10% (and most of that is government employees, ironically)... it was almost 50% back in the "good old days".
There is no labor party in the USA, there is no anti-war party, there is no anti-billionaire party. There should be. But there's not.
Back in the 50s they thought automation would mean we’d all have too much free time.
Too bad anyone left of Nixon was a communist.
Well, union busting prevents workers from banding coallitions and adding the unions. F-, blame Walmart and Amazon.
where even is thr limit to "union busting" would the corporation striking against the employees by closing the sites where there were strikes for a few months be considered union busting despite being the same as ehat unions do to corps?
That was a thing long before Amazon and Walmart. It's just capitalism in action
