[QUOTE="HBGPreloader, post: 5951449, member: 19782"] Yes, good, bad or otherwise, the government regulates a lot about unions and labor in general. However, supporting democrats and their policies, agenda, etc, seems counterproductive to me. After all, look what happened to the railroad workers... [B]Biden intervenes in railroad contract to block strike[/B] - PBS, Jul 15, 2022 Meanwhile, after O'Brien told biden to 'butt out' of our negotiations, we approved one of the best contracts in our history. So, do we really want to support or give even more power to the government, like CA and elsewhere, who will and already have selectively set standards for wages, benefits, etc for select groups of workers? I applaud O'Brien for smashing the union stereotype, stepping outside of the box and speaking at the RNC because the biden admin has been a disaster and headlines like this... [B]The union vote is becoming more Republican[/B] - CNN, January 31, 2024 ...show that times are changing. [/QUOTE]
