Really is pretentious, no matter what she says. Do
I also don't like unions though
It doesn't?
Unions don't unionize for the sole purpose of striking and that's your argument.

That's not necessarily true because anyone can strike at any job, really. They don't have to be part of a union to do it.I know they don't pet , I just meant if unionised that becomes a factor. I know it's not their entire purpose.

So? Part of life.True , But if they are union everyone does it at once.

They can strike without a union, but few strikes are as effective without numbers.True , But if they are union everyone does it at once.
Good point there.They can strike without a union, but few strikes are as effective without numbers.
Ergo, unions are merely organized striking. And that's a good thing.
Seriously.
Unions at strike are basically large groups of people striking at once with a certain degree of organization, restraint and governance. There's a good chance that without unions, more than a handful of strikes would become 'employment riots'.
Well, from the looks of it, the pros seem to outweigh the cons.
I was talking about the pros vs cons mentioned here.I completely disagree for the same reasons that I am against unions in the first place.

People have the inalienable right to the pursuit of happiness. If you want something and it's not illegal, you have the right to get it. If you want a raise, better benefits, whatever, it's within your right to go after it/them.
But, as the saying goes, your rights end where another's nose begins. Nobody should have the right to affect the life and livelihood of people jsut to get what they want. Striking is unethical and quite frankly should be illegal.
No one has the right to step on another person to get what they want. And whether you agree or not, insurance, better pay - they are all *wants*. Wants and needs are totally different.
When you strike and create a works stoppage, you are stopping work for people who NEED to work in order to have income and pay their bills, eat, and clothe themselves.
How anyone can, in good conscience, go on strike is beyond my ability to comprehend.
Going after what you want is not greed. Stepping on others to do it most certainly is.
That's nice.Unions cause the strikes.
Cause and effect.
Yes.Ice are you being serious?
I know. I had posted before I read your post.Unions are nothing more than extortion rings. I said that in my post.
Well that's your view.They are legal mafia rings.
I know. I had posted before I read your post.
Well that's your view.
Im surprised you would say health insurance is a want when with poorer families it is indeed a necessity that is extremely out of reach and not a whole lot of jobs give health insurance. if you go straight through an insurance company rather than through a company you work for (gov't or decent business), the rates are high as hell. AS a 21 year old on her own, I spend about 2,500 on insurance a year (I don't get that back) just so my insurance can cover me for about a crappy deductible any time I see a doctor. Health insurance is hard to come by and good health insurance is even harder and that goes for the majority of the country. If anyone wants any kind of decent insurance plan and unionizing and striking is the only way, then they have the right to do so freely. You can demand for a raise or insurance all you want on your own, but it's you against a whole company that hardly gives a damn about what you think because in their eyes, you are replaceable. When you unionize it puts those big companies in a bind to conform to the peoples' demands and gives hard working people what they rightfully deserve.
If anything, everyone has the right to a good health insurance and again, I don't see that as a want, luxury or anything like that. It isn't an A/C unit or an extra vehicle you don't actually need. It's a plan for you/family that helps you when you're in a bind and I'm sure anyone could appreciate that.
