Unions.

Not all are good and there’s an argument to be made that they shouldn’t be necessary but: unions are the working man’s militia. Capitalism will continue to squeeze the life out of workers until it becomes unprofitable to do so. Our lawmakers are owned by the corporations so expecting change from on high is akin to wishing on a star.

These are companies are posting record profits year over year while producing less for more… while taking more for less. This needs to change or those companies need to die.

A bad union is still worse than no union - though I wouldn’t want to be quoted on that.

It pains me to agree.
