Reading through his wiki is like :D D: :D D: :D D:
The guy was the definition of a mad genius. An authoritarian anti-war socially progressive union-buster. That description doesn’t even make sense, but that’s who he was.
This also points to why private businesses are better than publicly traded businesses. Private business owners can do whatever the fuck they like, good or bad, meanwhile public businesses are legally obligated to pursue profits above all else on behalf of their shareholders.

If you want to boo him for the other shit you might want to bring the other stuff up as actual context in the image and repost it with the new context.
Still more progressive than Switzerland to this day. They have normalized 42.5h workweek. You need to work 8.5 hours to be considered a fulltime employee.

The better option is the co-opt.
Workers owning the business and working to make it better for themselves.

35 hour week ftw. Although many newer people I work with are on 37.5, they only get a half hour lunch.
Exactly.
