Re: Celebrating "Labor"...? said by sonicmerlin:...sigh... think about it from this very specific, limited perspective. Without unions you'd still be working 14 hours/day, 7 days a week. By limiting the number of hours in a "full-time" employment, unions have actually increased employment opportunities overall. I don't know about your specific experiences, but unions do a lot of good that you apparently are not aware of. Why don't you read a little bit about the topic before you espouse your hate? The standard refuge of today's leftist scoundrel: my attestation to the simple FACT that unions destroy jobs, and blockaded my employment for years, is "hate".
Please demonstrate, in today's context, ANY place where the presence of a union has attracted employers and created wealth.
You can't.
Instead, unions cause employers to leave town, either out of state, or offshore.
I've worked with several locals, and seen the books. I was never surprised when the subpoenas came followed by indictments. I have plenty of exposure to union administration and operation.
Wasn't it you who claimed Fremont had no union? Perhaps you should read a little bit on the topic. |
