I guess you are being sarcastic. I am for a living wage, or basic income. If you are born into a money dependent world then that should be a part of it all. But we're talking union wages here, not a living wage. Unions were a great idea until greed got in the way. If we want a living wage it is through government and law, not unions.

Wait till they replace us with AI, no need to fuck your workers, no need for unions, no workers complaining, just AI working every day. /S

bosses seem to want back with the old days before unions… yknow, when the workers rose up and fucked them up instead of asking

People who have to pay more than 60 thousand dollars for a cheap car hate unions.

He doesn't understand "no".

He does understand "then we're only making trade deals with blue states, not the federal government of the US"
