Nobody should give a shit what another reality TV show host business marketing shill grifter has to say about labor regulations. He's the last person I would care about an opinion from on the topic. Not seeing a link, did the article also include a response from labor leaders?

Unsurprisingly, the article is more nuanced than the title.

For example, he states he has fired people in the past for not answering an after hours emergency, while the title seems to me to say he would fire people despite the new law.

The article does include a response and background from labor leaders in Australia, as that is the most recent country to enact this law.

But I entirely agree about his character, and he's the worst person on that shark tank show too. I dont know ive ever agreed with a quote of his in an article.
