Unions provide the level playing field and the balance needed for

obscene pay, 130 times the average workers' pay.

Why do we need Unions?


Unions also provide equal compensation for unequal ability and dedication to
the job removing the incentive to do much more than just getting by.

That of course has an effect on the bottom line that businesses live and die
by.

How many union bargained pension plans went bust? Doesn't sound like your
track record is so good. Don't try to blame it on the company, you the
union should have been there making sure the plan was fully funded back when
the times were good. Rile up the workers, get a promise for the future that
no one can guarantee so it looks like the union is doing something.
Politicians and Unions have something in common, when their mouths are
moving, they are lying. (Yes, I don't trust the company very far either.)
