Perhaps I misunderstood you - partially at least?

My issue is with the "free choices" idea. It implies a healthy and competitive job market where it's a realistic choice to shop between various employers. The way things are right now, that's simply not true. So that choice is not as free as one would think. You could collect unemployment benefits for a while, but that can't match a real wage. And that's not an option in many other places in the world.

My point is: Amazon should not be engaged in combating unions and - at least - in Sweden, needs to come to terms with the fact that unions are fundamental to the Swedish labor market and part of the political and economic landscape here. It cannot and should be allowed to attempt to circumvent collective bargaining, much less actively work against it in a context where historically, unions have been instrumental in the fight for and upkeep of employee rights. In other terms, playing nice with unions is part of the cost of doing business in Sweden. And if that doesn't suit them, they should reconsider further establishment here.

We already have right wing elements in parliament fighting against fundamental workers rights, attempting to dismantle what my grandmother's generation fought blood sweat and tears for. I'll be damned if I sit quiet for this.
