It is well and good that you recognize the value of competition in a free market. Labor is a commodity on the market, also. It is the only commodity on the market that negotiates it's own price in it's own voice.
Ignorant? I merely copied and pasted a section from your video description. You are the one who described the corporations that provide food, warmth, electricity and broadband internet to spoiled brats like you as blood sucking, not me.
I'm glad you said "brutal corporatism" instead of "capitalism". I agree with you, we need to see a new era of capitalism that is guided by conscience and shows compassion for others. Competition in a free market is the most ideal system in the world we live in, but it is best for all if we do so with discretion and exercise proper discernment in the process. But that will not happen as long as people are unwilling to support a company primarily based on how it conducts itself in its activities.
...But if it is as you say, it would have been more honorable on the part of the hotel to inform the employees first that they were being replaced, and/or to have offered them wages that reflected the difference that they would be paying the replacements.
We're not talking about abuse. Abuse is a criminal matter, and if a crime is committed then there should be justice. But firing employees is not a crime. It is fair on the basis of it being a private organization that can make private decisions that affect their business. It's unfortunate, and I sympathize with the former employees more than I do with the hotel, but it is fair...

Waluum,
It is well and good that you recognize the value of competition in a free market. Labor is a commodity on the market, also. It is the only commodity on the market that negotiates it's own price in it's own voice.
Thank you, and have a nice millennium.

They were replaced by minimum wage workers without health care. The era of brutal corporatism has to come to an end soon.

How gullible do you have to be to think the US military is used to protect you or democracy?
