Employees that get fired over dumb-ass CEO decisions should be able to sue the crap out of the company. Let's make it easier to kill the companies that do this shit.
In a state where corporatism dominates everything and the reins are minimal. We allow corporate A to get away with more than we deem appropriate for the sake of preserving the bottom line. This gives them leverage to do it again and again or to intensify. It also showcases to corporation B that this abuse is at an apparent acceptable threshold, with room to probably get away with a bit more. It's an abusive cycle that will continue to demolish the well being of more and more people until proper reins are put in place.
what have regulation ever solved? they just make everything more expensive and difficult for the people actually driving progress, unlike you dirty parasite... oh wait, we aren't in a libertarian Ayn Rand cosplay, are we?
you do realize that this isn't an Ayn Rand cosplay convention... right?
the "no bailouts and as little regulation as possible" is a fairy tale, unless you think that bombing the families of striking coal miners was a good thing.
PS: the no bailout/regulation shtick comes from the idea that you somehow are unaffected by the actions of others
You are correct in that numbers leading into Covid rose dramatically and started to fall off over the last, I wanna say, year and a half or so. Still larger than before. I do not have anything against hiring and firing on a by need basis. However, I do think that's gone too far in this instance. When you have 15-20k people being let go at multiple organizations, there's something wrong with the decision process in the first place imo.
