To: Leaning Right

MS is a right to work/open shop state. If the workers here wish to form a union, good for them.

However, with MS being a right to work state, workers there who voted against the union can’t be forced to either join the union or pay union dues to keep their jobs! They also can’t force new employees to either join the union or pay dues as a condition of employment!

Well yes and no. Buddy of mine retired from American Airlines in Texas, a right to work state. I asked him the same question and his reply was something to the effect of “no you don’t have to join the union but you likely will come out to the parking lot and find your car has no windows left in it and the tires slashed.”

Much like paying “protection money” to the mob.
