Living in Europe in a country where you are more or less protected against layouts, were unions are allowed to exist. Jet it is so difficult to get the people to get their head out of their butts to do some solidarity or even improve their own conditions.

It sounds like you’re in an anti-Union country that is only pretending to care about worker’s rights.

Here in the horrible individualistic pro-capitalism USA workers are struggling to get their unions recognized, largely because once a union is organized there is a whole industry of advocates and lawyers who will push for the bargains to be made, for those bargains to be (at least slightly) better than the law, and for the rights in law or bargain to be protected viciously. And even if you’re not in a union, there are sharp public and private mechanisms to respect labor rights.

Not all of the USA is anti-union, and the parts that arent can and do strike when they don’t get an honest and fair deal.
