America would be better off without ANY unions whatsoever. We don’t need them. They need us. Get rid of unions and get rid of the damned leftist thugs....once and for all! They are parasites that drain the productivity of America and as such, we simply cannot afford the added burden they represent.

Maybe panels of employee advocates could be set up instead. Advocates that could or would go to bat for employees that are unable to do so for themselves. But no dues, no organized labor, no political bias and no devastating ‘thuggish clout’. Let’s end the insanity.

Yup. All my working life, I never belonged to a union. My relationship with the employer was simple: if I do the job well, I get paid; if I louse it up, I get fired. That should be all there is to it.

Every employer I ever had was generous in pay and benefits and when I needed time off (rarely), I could get it without a problem. Be fair with your employer and your employer will be fair to you.

I agree. Unions are useless.
