How is a private sector employer not? Are you alluding to the difference in affluence?
- bradleyjg 6y agoIn the private sector case it might be some fellow citizens, though it need not be, but that’s qualitatively different from all your follow citizens democratically represented. All the theoretical arguments for unions are predicated on the relationship between labor and capital that doesn’t exist in the public sector.
