This is massive for workers' rights in America (and generally isn't "political" in the sense of the word)

Almost everything is political by nature whether you choose to engage or not

Awww, human rights don't matter to you. That's nice, adults are talking here.

It's always kind of entertaining the way people will out themselves as not understanding what politics is by insisting that they are somehow above political discussion.

Protip: Discouraging/disparaging political discussion is itself a political act.

So, human rights only matter to you if literally everything you talk about and everything you say is politically motivated? That does sound about how I figured politically obsessed people think, which is to say that politically obsessed people are gigacringe.

This is indeed huge. It's going to have a massive uphill battle against the very large amount of money people currently make by exploiting non-compete clauses, and I'm sure there will end up being some concessions (like if you leave a restaurant and start your own with all the same recipes, that's obviously no bueno), but this is a major shake-up.
Ya finally I can work at the pharmacy and the dispensary

Hell yeah I'm happy the FTC did something, I don't know if this is technically in their power, but that's amazing anyway.
