It still means you cannot, for instance, quit to escape intolerable conditions, unless you already have another job lined up.

It also means that you're much, much less likely to find another employer willing to fill out the paperwork to hire you—especially if they also have to pay the $100k fee (yes, I know, the announcement doesn't say they have to—wanna take bets on whether Trump would say they do if he learned that it's possible?).

Is Trump the great puppet master people believe him to be, or more likely someone like Lutnick? Think about that. It’s hard to imagine a fool that’s more easy to manipulate than Trump, and I was here for GW Bush!

...I don't particularly credit any grand strategy to Trump, nor do I think my post suggested that?

It's possible that someone intended the knock-on effects I describe, but I would say it's just as likely that it's pure coincidence that they support the right's desire to hurt labor as a whole.
