The carmaker is now US labor’s most important target. If Musk doesn’t like that, he’s welcome to settle it with an auto worker by cage match

    Reality shows that Tesla gets hit with fines & judgments all the time.

      That’s the part of the point of the comment you are replying to. The fines are neither a deterrent nor an inconvenience to those wealthy enough to cover the cost. They use their money, power, and influence to continue to violate law without any other consequences other than pulling out their checkbook. The fines are meaningless to people that wealthy.

      sure does seem to be a deterrent

      Elon Musk says $40m tweet was ‘worth it’ after being fined

          0.00007% of his net worth isn’t a punishment. it has no material effect on him. it’s just some pixels on a screen.

        Ok, so what you want is for union busting to be a criminal offense instead of a civil one.

        I can get behind that.

          Instead of picketing the streets and striking their jobs, they should try picketing Musk and striking him in the head
