Trying to give those that do the work decent wages, health care, overtime, vacation pay, sick leave, safe work conditions, 2 work breaks a day, a pension. Who do they think they are banning child labor. They created the prosperous middle class. Damn unions!

Isn’t it great! (I recognize your collar). Now representation can plummet and union membership can disappear! ‘Scalito’s’ puppeteers’ dream! Perhaps, soon, we can migrate to Central America for work during our winters ..and they’ll be no need for them to come up here!
Siding with the oppressors often has temporary benefits … until they’re lost, too.

Pesky unions looking out for workers. As opposed to politicians
Thank goodness for the block option.

That is interesting. If it went retroactive would the fees need to reimburse? On the converse is it going to make unions have to increase the regular dues and what effect will that have?

Varn:
Actually, without union representation, the lower wages and abusive working conditions would more than ‘make up’ for the cost of those dues… But that’s incalculable, whereas ‘dues’ are/ were..
