And you can bet that there are tons of unskilled workers across the country in labor unions who feel the same way you do. There's no better mechanism in this country for an uneducated, low skilled worker to make more than they're worth than a labor union.
so there are no unskilled lazy workers outside of unions ?
Nonthing like not haveing to apply yourself to get a raise every year is there
That's how I found it at my NON-unionized workplaces as well. For instance, in putting out parts, if the quota was 100, and if I really got in gear and put out 200, my pay was still the same.
NO. I simply did fine during the interview. In many small towns, decent paying jobs of any kind are hard to find. That's why so many small towns are dying off.
But you still would have gotten the job had it not been a unionized shop, correct?
I'm a conservative myself, but I don't see why? of course some unions are pointless but others are needed, it made dangerous working conditions much better for their workers, the entire reason we have a "weekend" is because of unions. This anti union rhetoric is the entire reason we are losing voters, I know most union workers are conservative value wise.
I think most conservatives realize that unions have their place. They can help in certain industries at certain times.
What most sane, non-liberal American have problems with are PUBLIC UNIONS.
Obviously having unionized government workers "negotiating" with politicians for raises and benefits taken from the public's taxes, which then go directly back into said politician's re-election accounts creates titanic opportunity for graft and corruption, and you see the results in places like California.
FDR, who was certainly no Republican, warned against public unions back when we had a saner country.
so no republicans are lazy and dont work? I would love to have the ability to be an naive as you.life would be so much simpler.
And I'd love to have the ability to work in a discount clothing store and believe that I'm God's gift to politics while taking community college classes one at a time... but sadly I live the real world where truth still hurts.
The conservatives on here don't realize they are not part of that "club".
Very few people are apart of that club, but understand the vast overwhelming majority of conservative voters are not conservative because of conservative economic policy, or because conservatism favors business owners, so most conservative voters merely tolerate that part of conservative ideology.
That's how I found it at my NON-unionized workplaces as well. For instance, in putting out parts, if the quota was 100, and if I really got in gear and put out 200, my pay was still the same.
And now you don't even have to put out 100 do you?.... Still get that union raise for hideing in the crowd......
