Well I don’t agree with unions politically, the threat of unionization does have a positive effect at times ...

  You're against employees of a company banding together under the right of free speech and negotiating with a company as a group?

    Woah check out that straw man argument! I think what OP was saying, which you may have missed, is that politically they don’t agree with unions. Neither do I. Unions appear to suppress wages, block people from jobs who are not members of the union, and engage in bullying tactics against those who don’t want to join. On top of the fact they take that money (util recently, forceably) taken from employees and used for political means which go beyond the purpose of the union! A lot of Amazon workers were threatening to unionize, so when I think the original post was saying is that the threat may have worked.

      Strawman? I defined a union for you. And we don't know if the "threat" worked. Let's wait to see the full benefits package before we judge ;)
