I guess also that the brutality and corruption of Pinochet is associated with modernisation.
But as with the recent round of retrenchments in NZ, there is always more than one way to do things.
One example is the ripping off the bandage/ pulling the mat out from under reforms in New Zealand compared to reforms in Australia that were more gradual and saw people at the lower end still have award wages.
Or an even more puffball example. To get GPS and an estimated arrival time for a taxi you don’t have get a handling fee, a service fee and surge pricing. These are things that don’t benefit consumers and the model doesn’t benefit drivers. It’s certainly not the sharing economy it was billed as.
People are not pining for service fees or to have their holidays and sick pay removed. They want the innovation of reliable arrival times and swift information about problems.
