Anything is done because of national security. It's like how it's legal to park anywhere, as long as you have your warning lights on. /s

He didn't say which nation's security he wants to protect.

It's Russia's.

Except the Russian people's security from predatory oligarchs and the mafia petrostate.

In theory, a strong union of workers that suddenly had their contact torn up would... go on strike.

In practice, a lot of these government unions are already so ground down and paper thin that nobody notices the change until they start losing all their benefits.

If the president can end your union you never had one

NASA goes on strike: fuck it, we’ll go to space-X. SpaceX goes on strike: that’s illegal! Wharrgarbl!

[–] shplane@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

Right? Isn’t that the point of a union? If the boss insists on being a dick, you go on strike

Like abortion, you can't ban unions. You can only ban legally protected unions.

I'm not sure he really even has the authority to do THAT. But the courts take longer than a news cycle to sort this shit out.

Fuck Krasnov, he's the biggest security risk in the USA.

Unionized workers can't find their bootstraps. Without unions, they will have a much easier time finding them.
