They are too young to die or retire. I think we still need both unions and GPL.

- alnayyir 17y agoToo young? Do you have any idea how old the Teamsters and the IWW are? The IWW was involved in turn-of-the-century populist anarchist agitprop and labor activism. Fer chrissakes, do you think nothing has changed since then? I make $20 an hour to code, and a guy I know makes $80/hour (he started at that wage!) to tape drywall and carry out garbage. If I could take his job, I would. I mean ffs. And that's in NYC.
- jrockway 17y agoI make $20 an hour to code ... And that's in NYC. No offense, but unless you are a grad student and this is your stipend, you are horribly underpaid. The problem is not unions, the problem is where you have chosen to work.
- alnayyir 17y agoI know that I'm horribly underpaid, but I took it because I was in a tight spot. I'll be moving out to California eventually.
