Like your 40 week
Like the child labor laws
Like the overtime pay
Like knowing that there is some minimum standards for safety in the workplace.

Then thank the Unions.

The Unions are not all evil, and Conservatives are not all knowing.

Unions have far outlived their usefulness! Most are pure evil, Conservatives are a whole lot more knowledgeable that the other side.

You are right. Unions were needed desperately when they were formed. Many have run amok today, but they were started for very good reasons.

Anyone who disagrees, watch the History of Appalachia to see what was going on in the coal mines, rent the movie "Matewan" as well.
