Re:Thank God I'm not working in the US (Score 0)

80 years ago, when employers could do whatever they wanted with employee's, unions literally fought and died for workers rights. Unpaid overtime, dangerous work conditions, hazardous chemicals. Now days, those protections have been put into law and unions are considered unnecessary. Maybe rightly so. But without legal protections a lot of employers do behave badly. That's why businessmen love Republicans...they long for a return to the good old days. That's why "pure capitalism" doesn't work.
