Elon Musk doesn’t like unions and does not hide it.
He is opposed to the creation of a union at Tesla, and will do anything to make unionization efforts fail.
His favorite argument is that the manufacturer of electric vehicles offers among the most attractive working conditions and wages and benefits.
His aversion to unions is one of the sources of tension with the Biden administration. President Joe Biden is a big supporter of the unions. He even hosted labor leaders after their April historic victory at Amazon, another anti-union stronghold.
“Chris Smalls is making good trouble and helping inspire a new movement of labor organizing across the country,” the Democratic president posted on Twitter on May 11, referring to an Amazon Labor union organizer. “Let’s keep it going.”
‘Everyone Is a Worker’
But Musk has just put forward a very original idea which could well have the approval of the unions. The tech tycoon recommends abolishing the class system present in companies. Basically, Musk wants to end the famous distinction between managers and employees and everything that goes with it.
“There shouldn’t be this workers vs management two-class system,” the serial entrepreneur wrote on Twitter
