I may not understand something...In such case why is there a vote? If union is a voluntary organization, then why can't people who are for unionizing just open an organization and join it at will? Who prevents them, it's their own

Tesla is not as good as you might think. It has huge following, and I respect what they are trying to do, but the way they treat people is abominable: - they go fast and in process neglect safety. My personal friend had been stuck on the in
