Wil_Knights 09/12/18 1:33:58 PM #18:	I'm for unions, but they have downsides as well. Unions also protect lazy and incompetent workers.

Fenrimis 09/12/18 2:33:54 PM #25:	I've always been pro-business, in general. I don't like the idea of restrictions against my own business. While at the same time I understand the purpose and need for unions. However, there are some unions that seem pointless to me. My father was a fireman, and he'll completely disagree with me, but you basically get bullied into the union where you're ostracized if you dont join it (wont let you eat in the house, people will genuinely hate you) and the union as a whole never did anything that immediately benefited him in the 25+ years he worked there. In the 25 years they helped 2 or 3 guys from getting fired but they also did shit that was worth firing them for. I always felt like for us, as individuals, it would be better to not join the union (because of the excessive unions dues and dikes) but also to never get rid of the union because its needed. So, basically I see it as it's dumb to join the union but its awesome if your job has a union that produces effects regardless of membership of the union. --- Wave.
