    While many try to deride and undermine our unions, the truth is, unions are leading the fight to reward work, for every worker. If we want to rebuild the middle class with good wages, safe jobs, & retirement and healthcare benefits, we should look to them.http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer/2018/05/unions-are-not-a-special-interest-group.html …

        If you're not a capitalist (owner of capital, beneficiary of profits) then you're most likely labor, and most likely could benefit from a union to equalize the power dynamic so that you aren't exploited. Support unions!

        You need look no further than the great city of Detroit to witness the destruction that labor unions do to this country!

        Sadly in the early days Union corruption did lasting damage to their reputation. Many think that they are out to get their money which is not true. Overall Union Members do much better with a negotiated contract setting pay, benefits and workplace fairness and rules.

        Well since every anti union person gets to benefit even when they don’t contribute it’s no wonder they don’t care. Make it so they can’t benefit and they will be changing their minds quickly

        We'll have to elect Democrats to get that. Republican's pass laws that benefit CEO and company owners higher wealth only. NoRsN2018.

        There are those who don’t understand in the middle class how they got to be where they are. It was because of the Unions. And now the decline of the middle class is partially because of the decline of unions.
