It’s been this way in the USA a long, long time for non-Union jobs (maybe since our founding? I don’t know).

So whether you agree or disagree with employment-at-will, I don’t see how it will be the downfall of the USA given the history.

But it would be a better place if people could speak more freely without fear or being fired and without better social safety nets.
