I think that fundamentally, both sides of the argument have to push things to the point where the middle is willing to deal with it. Labor in the UK was malignant. They got eliminated because of it. Labor in the US led to the PATCO strike. That was fuckin' that. Now the UK exports nothing but reality television and Amazon employees piss in bottles.
