The Way We Work is Changing For the Better!

The labor market of this new decade is moving toward a more flexible, independent contractor model. But corporate media is missing the story.   As in California, big labor will try to force these worker s into their 1950s economic model through government edict, while younger workers in particular will continue to want the more flexible environment offered by providing valuable services outside of the traditional nine to five employment model.

It is this shift which will be the focus of legislative battles over employment law as Democrats seek to find ways to force these small businesspeople into becoming dues payers to their labor union allies, while Republicans will likely seek to end laws and regulations which restrict people from taking full advantage of the opportunities presented by the 21st century 5G work environment.

People ask if this shift is a good thing. Like the news that six million more Americans became employed in 2021, it is.  Anytime more people have control over their own work and productivity with the amount of money they make determined by their own ingenuity and effort, it is not just good but great.  Because ultimately, this is what freedom looks like.  The ability to make your own employment choices and thrive, or not, depending upon one s own initiative, is the essence of the American dream. As younger Americans experience this revival of individual freedom, they also discover the truth about the left s desire to control their choices through policies designed to restrict them.

Not to grouse about it, but you would be hard pressed to find a single law professor who supports this stance. Just sayin’.
