They often can't see the benefits, which are often large and numerous.
- bluGill 4y agoUnions in the US are bad, in large part because of laws written to force things that way. Unions in Europe work different, but we legally cannot have that type of union so there is no point in discussing how unions don't have to be bad.
- maxehmookau 4y agoThat's not a fair generalisation IMO. Most notably, moves to unionise workers at large retail companies in the US such as Amazon can only be a good thing. Some are bad, sure. Some unions here in the UK are bad too, but the general principle that unions work to protect workers is indisputable.
