I think you're doing downvoted because you put words into the parent comments now that weren't there. They didn't say unions are useless. They said American unions are weak. The implications are very different.
- billy99k 3y ago"They didn't say unions are useless" If something is weak (like the unions), will it ever be useful?
- unethical_ban 3y agoIt's faulty logic. "Unions of type T are weak, therefore all Unions are without purpose" is not logical. A poor implementation of a system is not a case against the system, particularly when other countries have proper implementations of the system. (BTW I'm discussing things with the opinions given by others. I certainly don't think unions, even in the US, are particularly weak or useless. The president had to take action to prevent a particularly useful and impactful railworkers' strike last year. Teachers in Virginia got good pay raises after a strike several years ago. Writers and actors are fighting for their long-term survival against large studios.)
