Now we have child labor laws.
Now we have OSHA.
Now we have minimum wage.
Do we still need unions? Sounds like you think everything would revert back to the way it was if unions weren't around.
Now, for the real truth. How many manufacturing jobs have left our country? Keep the unions, lose the jobs. Good idea.
Now I know you, you'll blame the job losses on the "big greedy corporations" moving jobs out of the country, I've heard it all before from you.
A company exists for only one reason, to make a profit. Not to provide jobs, not to provide healthcare, and not to keep a certain community afloat. If they can't make a profit they'll close or leave, you can't change that.
If you diagree with that, why don't you start your own business with that in mind. Start your own truck repair place and don't worry about the profits, just make it a nice place for lots of people to work. Don't worry about profits. See how well you do.
What's that? You don't want to take the risk and start or run a company yourself? That's what I thought. But there are people out there that will take the risk. They'll put up their own money, or even borrow money to make a go of it. And if and when they are successful, you hold that against them, and now in your mind they are greedy corporatists.
