Swede here, we have had strong labour laws and union laws for many years. The general reaction among people here when Musk tried anything remotely close to strike breakers were laughter about how stupid it sounds. It still baffles me that something like that is even allowed in the US.

We have many strictly enforced laws that help workers and employees not be abused by their employers. Unions have way more legal power and rights than in the US and usually just the mention of them makes employers bend over.

It is very funny to watch Musk trying to salvage his mess because thats just not how it works here.

Ofcourse our system isnt perfect, there are lot of flaws but its an imaginary utopia compared to whatever the US has.
