The abuse of workers will continue to get worse because too many Americans and American workers are indifferent or hostile toward abused workers. The fact that so many Americans continue to support employers like Walmart and others who exploit and abuse their workers make the labor situation worse.
The meme "If they don't like their job quit and find another" is absurd because they undermine their own work situation. And workers rights will continue to deteriorate until the mind set in the country changes.

(146 posts)I especially hate thought terminating cliches such as "If they don't like their job quit and find another". I hate how so many will tell americans to get a job even though they know damn well how bad the economy is. Not to mention other cliche platitudes such as "just deal with it", "get over it", "life's a bitch" ect. What kind of people think like this? I wish we could get americans to boycott walmart until they treated their workers better but americans like consumerism too much.
