SCOTUS decisions have been spot on. The largest teacher union is expected to lose 300000 members and billions of dollars. Scream at the sky starts now??

FolsomPrisonBlues Posted June 27, 2018 Report Share Posted June 27, 2018 LMFAO this ruling means nothing. People shouldn't have to contribute if they don't want to anyways. It should be noted that almost 100 percent of union based employers e joy nearly 100 percent membership, even by choice. Fake win. Go unions! Go wages! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd MUCH rather pay a small union fee for job and wage protection than pay nothing and leave it up to the employer to do the right thing. Wages flatlined in America when the unions declined. Fact. It baffles me that those on the right would prefer low wages and cheap labor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FolsomPrisonBlues Posted June 27, 2018 Report Share Posted June 27, 2018 10 to 20 dollars a month for: 1. Due process 2. Wage protection 3. Benefits protection 4. Retirement Wow. what a RIP off!

This is all about money. Unions don't want to lose money just like anyone else doesn't want to lose money. But people advocating for the abolishment of unions are idiots. People wonder why employers continue to offer stagnant wages and shittier benefits every year. What a concept! Abolish the unions! Wages and benefits will someday go higher I hope! Lolll Dudes literally voting against their own interests. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The right has convinced the uneducated that unions are bad. They are peddling this message to advocate for themselves so they can freely offer shitty wages, no job protection, and horrible benefits. When unions were at their peak, middle class America was at their peak. Employers were forced to do the right thing. Everyone made money on both sides. Arguing against ones own interests is truly baffling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
