It demonstrates that right as well as left wing institutions can become authoritarian. Communist is almost by definition a political dictatorship, that why I oppose such regimes. There are plenty less extreme institutions which have less dictatorship than say the UK and America, in that they aren't almost completely ruled by cooperations via stealth. I cite the Scandinavian countries for example. I can't remember being asked for my papers, or frog marched into prison when I last lived in a socialist country about 30 years ago! Gosh was it that long?
However, I am reaping the rewards and legacy of that socialist country at this point in time, because my 'hire and fire' company have suddenly discovered they can't do anything of the sort because of certain retained rights of workers. Hence it becomes difficult to bully people in the workplace providing they are prepared to provide a decent days work for a decent days pay.
My friend in contrast, has no such rights, he has no health insurance, no flexibility in working hours, few vacations, rotten pension and rotten pay. He thinks he is forced to accept no pay rises or changes in conditions because he believes that his job will be put under jeopardy. Talk about brainwashing! Meanwhile the shareholders and bosses of his company are laughing all the way to the bank with increased pay and dividends. If that's the sort of country you want you can have it!
