Unions don't do that, that's pure propaganda. Unions bargain for more free time, better pay, better work conditions (healthier, safer).
- SketchySeaBeast 4y agoIt also plays into the whole phenomena where many people for some reason would rather ensure one person is punished than a hundred helped.
- scifibestfi 4y ago> Unions bargain for more free time, better pay, better work conditions (healthier, safer) They do that AND make it hard to fire useless employees. It's a mixed bag, as all organizational layers are.
- juve1996 4y agoMeh, useless employees will be there either way, union or not. That's just the world.
- jimbob45 4y agoYou're right - unions don't do that. They could be incorrectly perceived as doing that though, which is the comparison I'm making to "Americans love feeling like they're about to be rich". That's very clearly not how Americans feel and framing it that way is pure propaganda, as you put it.
