    • It's better the workers never leave the office.PhanLo
    • I can't believe they're complaining that union workers are getting baseline fair deals now, and dares call them "above and beyond." Embarrassing.monospaced
    • Unions support the self interests of themselves/members at the expense of non-union members. Using coercion to grow THEIR paying base.deathboy

    • Well imonk it depends at what expense you mean from employees and public. Expense of accepted wages or price among public?deathboy
    • You see the corporation (if not in bed with gov) needs to compete for employees/public monies. They have lot of competition based with ppl free to choose valudeathboy
    • unions are more of a monopoly regulating ppls ability to choose. What they do has much more adverse effects on gainful employment and public pricingdeathboy
    • The devaluation of labour since the 60s/70s means that choice is illusory for a lot of unionized industries; nobody else is going to fight for fairer wages.i_monk
