As inflation has kicked up rates across the world and workers look for ways to protect their wages, labour unions have started to show their resurgence. But Elon Musk and Tesla have refused to talk with the unions, and in October, over a hundred Swedish Tesla workers walked out in protest, triggering a wave of sympathy strikes across the country. In this video, we're going to take a look at why Tesla is suing Sweden, why Sweden loves unions, and who's going to win.
