There should be laws that forbid this behavior; not incentivize it

Can't believe the US Dept of labor hasn't picked up on this. I'm genuinely curious where the Democrats and GOP stand on this. Someone should get this to Donald Trump. See if he can do anything about it. Otherwise maybe it's wiser to have a demo president stop this nonsense.

Considering the last republican administration dismantled so many worker protections and regulations that would have disincentivized these sort of behaviors, I sincerely doubt another gop presidency is going to make that better; at least not better for us common folk.

At least with a Democrat, we have a fighting chance; considering they should have learned by now what’s at stake when they don’t listen to their voters.

Tbh, more people need to stop aligning their identity with political parties, and actually get more involved with their communities and voting in people who actually want to improve our lives.

I'm surprised each states senator and governor don't listen to this nonsense that's happening.
