We can absolutely live the life with same income, but without the grind. For that, we have to unionize and fight off hustle culture.
They want to make us work more for less, that’s all. And what’s gonna help it more than saying “you just a lazy shit who doesn’t work long enough, unlike N.”
Fuck them. We can afford to work less for more. It’s just that their wallets are gonna get hit this time, for real.
This.
Commenters, as always, went into false dichotomy.

This has nothing to do with min wage tho. There are zero unionized workplaces that pay minimum wage.
I’m all for tying min wage to localized cost of living, and I’m extremely pro-union, but if the latter succeeds we just won’t really need the former.
We always need unions to have a watch om ways we can be exploited, preventing that behavior.
Having good policies respecting workers is, essentially, an endgame for every struggle for worker’s rights.
And yes, it is best to have laws cementing those achievements.
