> The last people I want working as my nurse or my kids teacher is someone who is entitled to their job regardless of their performance. And the last person I want working as my nurse is someone who got the job because they are good at boot licking and the previous nurse who cared about patient safety was fired for "being a trouble maker" when they complained about poor quality of patient care. Or how about a nurse who is overworked because there isn't a union around to see that they get breaks? Or how about a nurse who is stressed because they can't pay their bills? Without nurses unions, quality of care plummets. Or to put it another way, people become nurses because they want to help others. People become hospital administrators to make money. Without nursing unions, the hospital administrators are the ones determining what quality of care you will get.
