- zmix 6y agoChicago ain't the world! Here, in Germany, labor unions are not perfect either, but pretty effective. It's a question of culture: if something never can grow up, into a solid state, it will cease to succeed. In the US unions get constantly hated and attacked. It's difficult to develop a healthy personality under such circumstances.
- fouldiplomacy 6y agoI loooove me some fallacies and biases. I work diligently everyday at work to avoid them. However; I think this is misplaced as a quick search of Chicago news will inform the reader that Ms. Lightfoot has her hands full trying to balance a budget while not crippling the city because of unions. There is no fallacy here, only truth that is uncomfortable to some.

You wrote: > Chicago is a great example of labor unions and how well they work out. The error in your logic: Premise: Chicago's labor unions are labor unions. Premise: Chicago's labor unions are bad. Your conclusion: Therefore, all labor unions are bad.
