I really think unions are a good thing. The first thing is job security, My husband was laid off many times as a computer programmer and they replaced him with younger cheaper help. You can't do that with a union. also unions get health insurance, and better benefits than non union shops. Just look at the teacher's salaries between union teachers and non union teachers. When I was in a union, I wasn't feeling complacent but I felt secure.

Yeah, when the teachers go on strike they say they are doing it for the children. Give me a break! The worst thing that happened to teachers is them becoming unionized. Now the crappy teachers don’t have to worry about their job.

Auto workers in Tennessee at a ratio of three to one voted to join the UAW! They looked at the middle class wages and benefits earned by their brothers and sisters in the North through collective bargaining and decided to join them. With support from Biden’s labor department our middle class is being built back! Soon workers throughout the south will follow and enjoy better wages and benefits, safer work places and due process in disagreements with management.

Good for them

As inefficient and ineffective and ineffectual unions have been over the years . They provided worker safety , better wages , healthcare , 40 hour weeks , overtime, vacations , retirement benefits,
And an Entire Middle Class .
Reagan abolished it all and gave away the pensions to people who never worked for even one penny of any of it.
Biden is turning this around ,whether or not you foolish maga rats care or not !!!
Poopoo it all !!!
You’re a minority that doesn’t matter in
the big picture.

Nice try dummy. That's not including benefits, such as healthcare, Insurance and Pensions. Nope, saw this years ago in a Forbes article. Probably more by now so GFY. Idiots don't realize the associated costs besides a paycheck with a business because they've never run anything. I'm sure you believe your SNAP card is free.

In nearly every teacher's strike I have seen, the teachers ask for improvements to their schools, like supplies. I also remember at least one case in which the teachers negotiations for better benefits was put on hold because they wanted a new high school.

No, they go on strike for more money and benefits. Meanwhile our education system sinks lower and lower on the world stage. You're a perfect example of an educated idi**.

What are talking about? Non-union, right to work, can do a government contract cheaper but Davis-Bacon forces them to pay union rates including vacation benefits.

This is bad for you …why ????

Without Unions , even you would be working for Pennys
Republicans believe their labor should be free.
They have never willfully given workers anything without a fight .
There plenty of reasons to be anti union , but,
Not for you.
“Right to work for less”
states do a disservice to workers .
Unions force a seat at the company bargaining table.
The very most important reason for unions.

Except that the Middle Class in America is so far in debt thanks to Joe Biden and his Socialist Administration that it may take a decade for them to get out from under! mortgages are drowning the middle class and so are rentals. Food is up 20% and no matter where you go or what you buy is 15-20% higher! The auto worker in Tennessee are a drop in the buck compared to the middle class that is being destroyed by this Socialist Administration! But keep telling the Leftist lies and keep trying to change people reality!

Trump is going to destroy Democracy like he did when he was President and he is going to destroy the economy like he did when he was President! And he is going to kill people like he did when he was President! Tell me please someone, WHO DOESN"T LIKE PEACE & PROSPERITY?
