    Unions hurt productivity and in the long term make companies and countries less competitive.

    A system where labor benefits from increased productivity needs to be found. Unions are not and have never been the answer

    https://www.fraserinstitute.org/sites/default/files/UnionizationEconomicPerformance.pdf

    Also, unions are regularly linked to criminal activity, strong arming, and organized crime

    Lots of people that blindly support the perceived short term benefits of unionization in Lemmy. But, this are facts whether you like them or not

    Long term, unions are bad for everyone

      Except most developed countries have strong unions and guess what, most everyone is happy with them and the workers actually have rights and get paid a fair wage. Only in the worker-trampling corporate-hellscape that is the US someone would think this nonsense.

      Says while citing “studies” from the fraser institute, a libertarian think tank registered as a charity. Fuck them and fuck you for spreading their propaganda.

      We have bad/corrupt governments sometimes, that doesn’t mean we should get rid of governments. (Though maybe the libertarian Fraser institute might disagree with me there.)

        Fascism under Mussolini was envisioned as the merger of state and corporate power.

        I always find it interesting that right wing “libertarians” never seem to ask themselves what would happen if you abolished the state and left a power vacuum for corporations to fill, with no one capable of stopping them.

        The vote did not pass and Amazon is laying off workers at every level. Automation is coming faster due to unions

        Whose the clown? 🤡

          you.

          you are the clown.

          Also, I know English isn’t your native language, but “who is” contracts to “who’s”.

          “whose the clown?” would be asking “to whom does the ‘the clown’ belong?”, which doesn’t make sense on multiple levels.
