It may be weirdly constructive for human rights if they gut these pathetic labor protections, because an entire workforce can explain to their bosses that the raise they’re due (not demanding, but due) is a lot cheaper than double knee replacements and a new house.
After a refreshing season of that flavor of negotiating, we can go back to having actual labor laws that do something.
Fuck that, I’m going to the NLRC
It’s like people forget why the NLRB exists: the government being present to meditate and force management to the table keeps them from having to bring in the military when the police can’t suppress the workers.
We’ve been there before. The sliver of union protection is what’s been keeping the old ways of negotiating from coming back.

That being said, being prepared for it can’t hurt. The liberal gun owners community has finally started seeing some activity this week
There is a clear difference between how police treat unarmed protesters and how they treat protestors when a large amount have rifles and vests.
I have a feeling upcoming union protests will have a much stronger response from police in the next couple years.
Look up why they originally banned machine guns for private ownership. Or what the US Army Air Force’s first bombing mission was.
I still have trouble accepting how few people know that.
It blows my mind that it’s largely forgotten that we had to (as private citizens) go to fucking war with companies in the first place.
What was the bombing?
Battle of Blair Mountain.
