  • Unionization doesn’t always prevent layoffs

    Fixed that for you.

    I’m sure you didn’t mean to imply that unionization NEVER prevents or at least helps to prevent spurious mass layoffs, since that would make you a total imbecile about how labor relations in general and collective bargaining in particular works or at best an otherwise rational victim of gaslighting disinformation campaigns carried out on behalf of the people doing the layoffs.









  • that makes it even worse

    My point exactly

    bottom line is they don’t want to do anything without some kind of expectation of ROI

    Which is why they need to be compelled by law.

    Some countries have Good Samaritan laws that protects people who honestly want to do their best to help someone from being penalized for it.

    Other countries have “duty to act” laws penalizing those who choose not to help in a clear emergency.

    Other countries still have BOTH. That’s what’s needed when people are starving, corporate profits are booming and more food is wasted than eaten.

    companies that have tried to donate ended up getting sued by the people they donated to

    That’s a false narrative that companies are using as an excuse.

    As long as they’re acting in good faith and with full transparency, Good Samaritan laws make them immune to lawsuits and not liable for any ill effects.
