The FTC’s three Democratic members were in favor of adopting the regulation, while its two Republican members were against it.
Not surprising in the least. Of all the Republican hypocrisy their attitude towards workers using their value to increase their earnings is one of the worst. They claim that they support self reliance and building yourself up, but stuff like this shows that it’s clearly a lie. They support businesses maximizing their earnings by charging what the market will bear, but as soon as a worker tries to do the exact same thing they lose their God damn minds.
That’s a hot take I’d expect to hear from a 12 year old.
