Can you elaborate further on the points of what happened, the countries themselves, and the final quote?

Retirement age increase, easier/cheaper to fire employees, relaxed definitions of extra-time, the usual.
We ended up with a recession and less rights.
Don’t want to reveal the countries, but it’s a common tale.
Why don't you want to name two countries on earth? Either people can fact check you or you're just full of it.
Also don't think you are special to live in two countries. This will not dox you.
Depends on which regulations you remove.
It's against the law to steal money. That's a regulation we need to keep.
It's also against the law to build a house if the existing homeowners vote that you can't. That's a regulation that makes the market less efficient, though I can see the reasoning behind it.

Did you know that the most common sort of theft in the US and Canada is wage theft? It doesn’t happen nearly as often in countries with stronger labour laws.
It doesn’t get prosecuted nearly as much as other types of theft.

I've lived in two countries that went through this transition in labor laws to follow the neoliberal playbook. Guess what happened.
