Violinist and teacher, building a homestead on raw land in between lessons and concerts. Fascinated by how we can develop resilience in our lives, in our families, in our communities.
I'm excited about freedom tech and circular economies, and am deeply grateful for the devs and advocates who are helping build tools for a better future.

He's libertarian, right? So the expectation was that this administration tries to get the govt out of the position to tell companies what to do one way or another, that it's not the role of the govt to dictate hours, etc.

I have no doubt the lack of regulation will allow abuses, but there should be upsides to the people/ workers as well. E.g. that it's not the state's role to protect people from viruses or to demand payment for driving permits, etc., or to make businesses overall so expensive to run that no one can do anything - all of which should make life easier and less expensive for Argentinians.

FWIW I don't hold out much hope for that - power tends to beget more power ☹️

Argentinians voted for less Government and more ideological alignment with Libertarianism. So yup this is the type of law that gives them everything they voted for, less pay, less protections legally, makes the employer and employee relationship balanced however leaves loopholes that attract foreign...

I'm sure you know exactly why they are in positions of power. They do not serve the people of Australia.

I think the spread and education of worker cooperatives would be a big plus in bringing about change.

Do you know about swarm intelligence? I'm not sure how it works - in fact I know very little about it - but my impression is that there's a way to capture collective intelligence for better decision making.
I wonder how this could work with worker cooperatives, where I would think a big challenge would be how to make decisions - even how to frame decisions - without falling into power struggles.

Research Mondragon Corporation, they have and continue to work out many problems with large worker cooperatives. But, there are also a lot more worker cooperatives operating out there. My power is under a cooperative. It’s pretty much a proven concept that capitalist want to keep quiet.
