Don’t assume that US wage slave practices are universal.

Most of the developed world has very strong worker protections and a recognition that mental health and flexible working is important.

We can provide jobs with good benefits, flexible hours, accommodations for parents etc without resorting to the employment model Uber trumpets. The EU proves this is possible (it’s far from perfect, but empirically better than the US), and the fact that it’s one of the worlds largest trading blocks shows it can be done without sacrificing economic progress.
