Unions eventually stab you in the back.
They sell you a good game and for a while they get away with winning you unearned wages, pensions, vacations and numerous other unearned perks, but the inevitable always happens:
They negotiate and demand until you have no job left, while the union executives dine and wine with the President and pad their bank accounts.
And that is the ultimate betrayal.
Yeah, because the 1%ers will give you those things unbidden...
Unions have failed to keep up with the times, and have failed to stress their important to average working people.
That said, we are going to get to a breaking point where the wealthy have drivenwages down so far that people can't cope, even working two or three jobs.
Wages are higher now than ever. Fail.
The 1%ers (whoever they are) do not give things. No one gives things, unless it's charity, which you seem to equate with jobs. Managers pay what they need to pay in order to attract the talent they need for the job. The market forces wages, not gov't. You haven't figured that out yet because you've never done an honest day's work in your life.
And when the market provides children to fill those jobs who is the government to say otherwise?
