>It's amazing how far away bureaucrats can tell others what's best for them.

It is absolutely amazing how people of today totally ignore history and historical context. It has been years and years of struggles to enact labors laws to give employees some very small amount of power in the extremely unequal employee/employer relationship. You're acting like the time of The Jungle and the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire were the good old days until pesky governments got involved and ruined everything.

The US, comparatively, has labor laws that don't give much power to the employee (see: at-will employment).



Yeah, but welcome to Hacker News.
