Antiwork

Post title says it all- ALL publicly traded companies should have mandatory unionization of their workforce. Perhaps set a salary/wage limit that is directly tied to REAL inflation, not the governments CPI scam. For example, any employee earning below $250,000.

Any company that is already traded publicly should be given a set amount of time (6 months, for example) to fully unionize their employees.

Starbucks is making an attack on workers' rights by performing unionbusting action of questionable legality. We must send the message that this kind of behavior is unacceptable and we will hurt you if you attempt to disrupt the formation of unions. This isn't just about Starbucks anymore.

And if you can't tell if someone is on drugs, then they are obviously accomplishing the agreed upon tasks in the agreed upon manner for the agreed upon time. What's in their veins…
