I am opposed to “Right to Work” on one hand: I don’t believe the state should be able to regulate private contracts between corporations and unions in this way. Basically the state is saying that this type of contract is now illegal.... It is overreach - plain and simple.

On the other hand: However, I do believe the unions no longer represent their members’ interests and have essentially become political funding mechanisms for the democrat party. It’s time for them to die since they won’t be unions instead of political operatives.

Maybe one day unions can be unions again. Maybe one day people can make a decent wage again. Maybe one day the democrats and the left will no longer have power. Maybe one day all this will be behind us.

I would argue you have it wrong. The right to bargain and have contracts between workers and corporations is no at stake nor harmed.

What is done away with is forced unionism, the union shop. That is a worker is not legally required to join a union to work. A person has the right to work unencumbered with the union burden
