I am not wrong, I have looked at the economic data regarding unions and how they were corrupted by leftists and have driven tens of millions of good jobs overseas by their monopolistic dominance. Free markets are impossible to kill discostu, the Soviet Union, China, etc. have proven that. But, prosperity can be killed by economic interference of the free market. That is fact...
None of which matters. Unions gain power by employers being crappy to their employees. These railroads have known this issue was coming for years. And they still couldn’t manage to say “hey maybe we should actually pay these people well, and not punish them for getting sick.” You want unions to go away? Treat employees like people. Notice the software industry, which completely coddles its employees, never unionizes. Good pay, good benefits, don’t punish getting sick or having appointments, no union. The math is simple.
