How do you disentangle politics and economics here? Or, are you just claiming that unions are focusing on the wrong side of the equation?

- sk4rekr0w 5y agoI think the disentanglement is fairly simple. If you want to improve conditions for workers, just say that you want to improve pay / $hr, increase break time by x min, and define xyz working conditions and have a detailed plan to support that. I've personally seen 0 unions pursue this approach... but have seen plenty advocate support for completely unrelated, purely political topics (e.g. voicing support for Palestine)
