Even those situation would be what a union is supposed to do. Like I said 80 years ago they were good when they fought against stuff like this. He ignored the fact I made that they are more or less political action groups today
The article about auto workers notes that the unionized northern factories have fewer injuries to workers. Because unions do what you claim they don't.
Probably because you can't do anything that might be a risk at a unionized job, and get in trouble for being a 'good' worker. If you do more than you are required to, you can get written up. Heck, I've worked places where two people are required to lift 2 or more 2x4s... or where you cant even hold/pass someone a tool you arent trained to operate.
Unions hold back progress, and serve no purpose in modern society where labour laws exist.
Unions only protect the lowest class of workers; the lazy and unqualified.
This varies heavily between unions/jobs. You've severely misrepresented this.
I've had the benefit of working two identical jobs except one was unionized and the other was not. The work conditions were vastly preferable at the unionized job.
Like this wasn't even close. They blatantly try to fire people over very petty stuff at the non unionized job. They still constantly attempt to screw you at the union job, but the union allows you to have a recourse.
Businesses are constantly just trying to screw with people. If you think there is any altruism to your average business then you are very naïve.
And that is exactly what I said. Unions protect the workers who should not be employed with the company. If the employer does not find you work right for them, they should let you go. ---
