> This isn't the late 19th century anymore. Nope, it's the early 21st century, and inequality in this country is higher than it's been since the Gilded Age. Not exactly a comparison we should want to be making. And the trajectory is still moving primarily in the wrong direction.

Re: SpaceX is suing to bust up federal union protections
#62Meanwhile, Musk is getting shellacked by Nordic Europe due to his tome-deaf and, frankly, incompetent attempts to bust the strongest and most successful trade unions in the world... https://www.politico.eu/article/elon-musk-x-pace-x-faces-new...
I wouldn't say shellacked, only a few dozen mechanics out of the 130 or so are striking, while the article implies all Tesla workers are striking. So few are striking that the union refuses to reveal the number, and recently expelled members for not striking. Tesla has found workarounds to most of the sympathy strikes and sold even more cars in Sweden in Nov to Dec 2023 compared to 2022. Not sure how that's incompete…
