I'd pretty much agree with you, except sometimes unions have valid points. Sometimes the companies they're part of really do treat the people like ****, so unions can be good. Ho…

Like my school (I'm a teacher and a union member of a suburban Chicago high school) might be doing on Monday. It would be my first, so I really don't know what to expect. It defi…

If it weren't for unions we would all be working 7 days a week with no benefits.

it's not unions you hate, it's strikes. unions are more valid than most people think. like ort888 said, If it weren't for unions we would all be working 7 days a week with no benef…

If you want non-unionized servers, hire illegal workers.

The problem I have with Unions is that they claim that when you hire a union worker, you are getting the best trained person for the job. The problem is, they won't put their mone…

Unions played a pivotal role in the worker's rights legislation we benefit from today. They became victims of their own success, it seems. Perhaps in the future there may be anoth…
