The Senate has rejected legislation to extend Affordable Care Act tax credits, essentially guaranteeing that millions of Americans will see a steep rise in costs at the beginning of the year.
I worry if unions were to become that powerful, they would just take the place of ownership. However, you can’t argue with the results, higher wages and better quality of life.
It seems in politics and business everything must be tempered and competitive to keep it above board, just like you need government to restrain corporations, you need business to restrain government; you need owners to restrain unions, and you need unions to restrain owners.
I was not familiar with term, apologies, after looking it up I think a Nordic state or three practice this (unions+government) and avoid the entire “minimum wage” issue. It seems to work very well, and for decades.
That’s what we should emulate, a solid system that employs proven methods of increasing lifespan and standard of living. If something else comes along that is even better, do that.
Our 50 states with “states rights” would be a perfect platform for this adaptability and to try different competing systems, but we are going in the opposite direction.
like can we get it to around 90%?

Just a theory.
do you think that political parties should work with unions in government (like in de leonism)?
