I’m not arguing with you, but the Americans’ knack for turning anything into a corrupt mockery of its intended purpose was demonstrated pretty consistently while unions were at their peak.
I don’t have brain damage so I’d like to clarify that this isn’t an argument for not having unions which I fully support, instead, I look at it as an example of what not to do.
How is this related? (for the record I do believe everyone should be fairly taxed)
The state responsibility is to allow social mobility and for people to have the tools to be able to earn what they need, while contributing to society as a whole.
The reasons that people often aren’t able to take care of themselves financially are unfair labour practices and legislative capture of states by the rich. This leads to unfair taxation that disadvantages the poor and prevents the state from creating a system where everybody can take care of themselves. If you want to reduce peoples’ dependency on state handouts, those are the issues that need to addressed.
So you’re saying, there should be strong unions and the rich should be fairly taxed?
Exactly.
