Companies don't own their employees.
edit: There's an equivocation on "association" here. As an individual, I don't have the right to "disassociate" people from myself. I can't demand that my sister not refer to me as her brother, or that she stop doing things because she is known to be my sister and those things would be "associated" with me. Freedom of association is about a person being able to choose who they wish to interact with, not freedom for a person to dictate what is "associated" with them in people's minds.

- CapstanRoller 4y agoYes. Companies can refuse to negotiate with unions (and accept the consequences of severely narrowing their access to the labor market)
