A reminder that the Nordic model of social democracy is still a capitalist society that puts profits ahead of people.

I cut a big hole in the back so I can shit through it though. Can’t stand the cold seat on my cheeks.
I’d be shitting in the neighbor’s toilet. It would probably be hard to explain why I’m in their apartment in my underwear.
Well that’s not suspicious at all.

A number that isn’t taken into account is GM spent $3.4 billion in stock buybacks in the last 12 months. They count this as operating expenses even though it only serves to artificially inflate their share prices so they can pay dividends to shareholders. A truly unnecessary expense that could be used for workers.
Small ones that you don’t hear about. Locals with less than 200 members wind up striking much longer because they’re less threatening. The longest strike in US history was 11 years. Strikes can last longer than you might think. The company just hires scabs. A couple years ago, 200 miners were on strike for 1029 days under the United Steelworkers.
How? UC isn’t paying their students, sure, but that’s not the UAW’s fault.
Maybe I’m wrong, but I’m pretty sure UAW is the best paying strike pay in the US. It’s also the 6th biggest union. The point is that the company has a much bigger advantage for surviving a strike than workers do. Getting unemployment would help level the playing field.
Strike pay is only $500 a week plus insurance coverage. It’s hard to live on that when strikes can last 6 months or even a year
Crazy, because all of those countries have an awful history of human rights violations that was only stopped when they were forced to at gun point. Many of those countries have had recent human rights violations too. You’ve picked countries that’re currently struggling with racist and sexist tendencies actually. You should read some UN human rights violation reports before you make stupid claims.
