| Jan 2, 2015 at 19:54 | comment | added | Olin Lathrop | @Jeff: That is a absurd comment. Corporations are corporations, and unions are unions, both of which are quite different. | |

You have gotten only one side of the story. The reason why salries have gone down in puchasing power ovoer teh last 30 years is almost enitrely caused by the lack of unions. The reason why workers can be expected virtually everywhere to work ungodly hours is due to the lack of anyone able to argue the point. ONe emplyee cannot win against multinational corporations, you need something as large as they are to oppose them. | |

If you don't like a work situation, go somewhere else. If you don't want to do that, then you've decided that all things considered it is still the best deal around. Just like the company can fire you if you insist on terms for continued employment they don't like, you can quit when they insist on terms for continued employemt you don't like. Employment is a mutual agreement between two parties that both feel they benefit. When that is no longer true, then either can cancel the agreement. | |
