The fact that most European companies treat their non-European employees like shit- despite the fact that Western Europeans enjoy the highest level of workers' rights in the world- just because they can get away with it in the United States or whatever is proof why regulations are needed.

European workers are only treated better than their American counterparts because there are laws protecting them, not because European corporations are so much more humanitarian than American companies. Never forget that under capitalism companies will exploit you for all you're worth and all they can legally get away with.

#post inspired by my partner working as a contractor at IKEA and being treated like absolute shit with no benefits or a permeant position #while her European counterparts got amazing benefits and were always talking about their many vacations #also my mom worked at a German-owned company where the employees were treated just as bad as your average American worker #COMPANIES WANT TO EXPLOIT YOU!!! WE NEED LAWS TO PROTECT US!!!#fuck capitalism #capitalism #leftism #workers rights #labor rights
