I disagree. I will agree though that a Union is not needed if a company treats its employees like human beings and provides a decent wage and benefit package--if they are a profitable company. There are many great companies in the US that pay decent, have a decent health plan and offer profit sharing. I read about them all the time when they pay their employees profit sharing bonuses and the end of their fiscal year. These companies very seldom have labor problems.
Fair enough but ...
They're probably not Union shops where friend/T employees get compensated 50% more than the industry average either.

Careful with the broad brush you use.
The South is finally waking up to the stupidity of scab labor and wages.
I pack and have a conscience.
Being in organized labor has no effect on my individualism.
Organized labor and Socialism are not the same despite fake news best efforts.
It's all tongue-in-cheek ... I support Collective Bargaining 100%.
Especially in an industry where the jobs can't be outsourced overseas.

I was mostly messing with @rod when I posted.

You have been kind of snarky toward me ever since I had to remind you that we won the Civil War.

sounds like you have been brainwashed.

if negotiations break down then a walkout will get their attention. the only thing that works in almost all cases is to hit them in the wallet.

now is the time to talk strike and mean it. no bluffing.
Then I hope if you walk we pull a Ronald Regan and don’t hire any of you back. Think about all the people out there that might want your job. I say Goodbye

What do you mean if we walk? Are you management, or union? If “we” walk, and you aren’t “we” I say goodbye as well. Might even say more.
