    There is no or a very small impact of regulation on the number of exiled people coming in country. However, making more people illegal let bosses exploit them more. Those workers could not sue their boss because of those regulations, and most conservative unions rely unfortunately too much on legal solutions.

    So if a country couldn’t limit immigrations, it could exploit more people and bybass human right with regulations against exiled people.

    Yes, this is only positive for far-right bosses, and awful for others. But guess who decide in a capitalist economy ?



  • There is some counter example. France have free tuition and a very WTA election system. But this educational system has been kept thanks to the many struggle of workers through their Unions.

    However I think this voting system may have some impact on other field, like the jail system; which is is awful. I mean no jail is not, but the state of France is regularly sanctioned because its break humain rights

    There is many homeless women; unfortunately because of threat of rape and harassment (somehow underlined here), lots of them have to not look homeless. They have to buy fine clothes, and makeup. If you think that people “just have to prostitute lol”, you have to ask why you don’t. There is a fucking lot of violence against sex workers. Usually people that could prostitute have coworkers to rely on, or are forced to work for a boss (or a pimp, that the same thing). If the first case is the most common in most of countries, it’s not available for people with few social connections; which is usually the main reason of homelessness

    I think we should not confuse the authority based on oppression, and those based on expertise. However the last one could be justified in front of the community (like the Union), so I would use the word “hierarchical”; the trust we gave in those people is freely agreed between equals.
