I work with union members in my job and they are an absolute disaster. They insist on representing the LCD. They lie and distort the truth frequently. They hate management for no particular reason whatsoever. Its all about greed with them.
Big business lobbying and buying legislation through a corrupt campaign finance system is not illegal. Its legalized corruption. Capital is highly organized. Workers being disorganized while capital is highly organized means workers are getting destroyed and the labor share of national income over the past 40 years shows that explicitly.
then fix the system vis a vie unions and corrupt lobbying. what point do you think you are making by conflating unions with something else that is corrupt?
Their teachers are public employees. How successful it was remains to be seen. Teachers in Oklahoma are the lowest paid in the country and the billionaire class who push for the destruction of labor unions will not settle until no one has a labor union. The unionization rate is falling steadily every year, and the middle class share of the national income follows the exact same pattern. In other words; as unions are destroyed, so is the middle class.
The ruling class of course knows this. Thats why they attack labor unions so viciously. They know that a lone ranger, a lone worker, doesnt stand a chance against a well equipped platoon.
If unions are so great why to they have to force people to join?

You're the one who said unions are obsolete. Why is it obsolete for workers to organize but not for the business class? The ruling business class buy legislation that ensures the destruction of labor unions. Whats so great about that? In which society has there been a thriving middle class and destroyed labor unions?

you "work with" union members? so your management?

If people benefit from a union, its perfectly reasonable that they are required to pay for it. Whats so great about freeloading?
As labor unions decline, so does the middle class. The evidence is overwhelming that this is the case. Why support the destruction of the middle class? I dont get it.

closed shop. If you are against being "forced" to join a union,simply get a job somewhere else...……..
Like all the corporate people say.. "if you don't like the pay or your job...… your free to work somewhere else.
