> You're talking about union education as if it's equivalent to mathematics or something, like there is an absolute truth to be learned. Surely even the most pro-union people would acknowledge that not every implementation of a union is equivalent
Just like in school civics class you probably learned about the concepts of the government is structured, the principals behind it, a bit about other approaches, etc, I don't see why you couldn't learn the same things for unions. Of course the government doesn't really quite work like that, but isn't it better to have a baseline understanding and shared idea? The situation with unions now is that basically the only thing people know about them is propaganda from anti-union groups, unless they happen to be in one. I fail to see how this is better. It would be like if you first learned about democracy from a monarchist telling you how bad democracy is.
