The US being on par to Saudi Arabia and Ethiopia is disengenuous

The full report is in the link; btw i don’t know the Ethiopian situation, are you sure it’s worse? Just because it’s generally a poorer country doesn’t mean that unions are in a bad shape 😅

Ethiopia actually had strong socialist influence during most of the 20th century, meaning that on paper the worker's rights are not so bad. Today's reality is a different matter though, especially as they tried to emulate Chinese style sweatshops for textile etc. production around the 2010s (however the civil war with Tigray more or less put an end to that).
