So instead of fixing problems a business owner just folded the company. You can’t blame the union for that. Blame incompetence and/or greed because some asshole couldn’t run a business without abusing workers. Stop scapegoating unions.
You’re presenting one side of the situation to blame the other side. The stories you tell that you think are sympathetic to ownership and management show how businesses aren’t worth owning if they can’t abuse labor.
You really don't know anything of the story, so chill with the accusations of abuse or incompetence dude. Can you not conceive of the fact that unionizing can increase costs to a company and therefore affect their ability to keep a plant open?
And as for your second part...presenting one side of a situation to blame the other side....am I wrong or is that not the definition of a discussion/argument.
NONE of this is about "abusing" labor.
Why have you not at all, not once, addressed the fact that SOME union workers can abuse the system to the point that a company becomes unable to function properly?
Bottom line is you have no experience or knowledge of manufacturing or trucking unions or how they affect real life human beings. I keep conceding that not all unions are born of the same needs or look the same in practice, but you keep acting like I'm saying all unions are horrible and all management ever wants to do is "abuse" the workers.
I don't know how much more plainly I can put this.
