Unions were needed in the past because we did not have many if any labor laws in place. There was no minimum wage and employees were at the mercy of the employer. We now have extensive federal and state laws regarding minimum wage, discrimination, hiring and firing practices etc. Unions in essence are no longer needed and really just end up taking employees’ money and requiring the employee make more to compensate. |
Unions ARE necessary. There are so many labor cases where unions are needed to this day. What do you think will happen when there are no more unions? Companies are just going to let you keep all your rights? You're very naive.
