Is there a labour-friendly car company?
I'm shopping for a new car, and would like to choose one made with the least bad labour practices, if possible.
My reading suggests there is literally no good choice, but curious if anyone here has a perspective that could inform my choice.
Is there any car company that shits on their workers less and/or chooses contractors/vendors that shit on their workers less than the rest? Or are we just doomed to drive around the blood sweat and tears of exploited persons?
Shopping in America.
Edit: New to me. Used just as likely.
You're viewing a single thread.
Buying used is pretty much the only way to go here. Preferably something like a 10 year old Toyota so that you're not having to do repairs frequently and creating waste disposing of the old parts.
Other than that, maybe something like a kit car if you're really serious about labor friendly? The components are usually made by a a small team of enthusiasts, but you'd be assembling the vehicle either yourself or through a local shop.
Huh, kit car is a thought. Left demolition derby behind me because I stopped having time to do stuff to cars myself tho, so it might be impractical.
NGL kinda want an excuse for an ancient highlux
Nah, Kit car was more of a joke reply. I couldn't imagine what it would take to get a kit car reliable enough for regular use with insurance and registration (at least in the US).
I guess demo has left me with a warped idea of "sensible"
