    I guess it depends on the industry. Replaceable production line workers following processes that haven’t been automated yet are different from say engineers designing the production line

      Plenty of engineers get abused by their employers too it’s super naive to think otherwise. And it’s going to get worse and worse and worse as time goes on that’s the undebatable history of capitalism.

      Engineers designing production lines absolutely get fucked over with horrible working conditions. Unions benefit every single position workers fill.

      I guarantee you’ve never known an Engineer in manufacturing.

      If an engineer is living paycheck to paycheck it’s their fault, and very weird, since they’re generally decent at math.
