| This is entirely irrelevant. In what way is America going to ‘become better’ by emulating European(a cluster of many countries) labour laws? European unemployment rates are much higher..at least 50% more..than American unemployment rates. There has been no relative increase in wages in Europe whereas it has been steadily increasing in America leading to better quality of life index. There is no comprehensive Europe vs USA comparison but this is a good read of how they dealt with the pandemic(most of the countries mentioned have less than 1/4 population of US) https://www.pbs.org/newshour/amp/world/pandemic-shows-contra... There is no way to compare Europe to America but it serves better to compare America to China or India as USA is the third most populous country in the world after the other two. Comparing America to 5 million peopled NZ and 60 million peopled France is an entirely useless exercise. Unless the purpose of the comparison is to simply pit western countries with a majority white population with other countries with a white majority…therefore ignoring comparable countries from the east. And that’s is frankly Racist. China is more comparable to USA when it comes to economy than any other European country. But they are Asian, so it doesn’t count seems to be your stance. |
In the context of this discussion (unions) and in practical terms, US is culturally and historically much closer to Europe than it is to China.
Finally, I don't think I will ever get used to Americans obsessing over racism. Calm down.
