Extremely important, practically essential. Without unions, corporations could do whatever they want which means treating all lower employees like garbage and pay them next to nothing. Corporations are one of the most corrupt things in this country and without unions they could do anything and they will do anything for money. Employees who are unionized tend to have higher pay and treated better than non-unionized employees

It's all about creating a balance of power between workers and business owners, allowing everyone to paint a beautiful picture of fairness and respect in the workplace.


What is the Liberal view on labor Unions?

Conservatives believe that labor unions do not have a place in the US. Unions represent only as small portion of the American work force yet they seem to exercise more power than they have. They strike for higher wages and better benefits, refusing to work till their demands are met. Conservatives see this as blackmail, because they wont work till they get what they want. Many of our most important workers have labor unions, such as teachers, or construction workers. Theses are key positions in the economy and if they don't work it throws everything off. They fail to see how their actions effect the world around them, that by striking they can make other people lose their jobs. And due to that fact that they demand higher wages, the cost to consumers will be high as a result. Conservatives wish to greatly limit union power. They also dislike that in order to be part of a unions you must pay dues, they think it is a violation to the workers rights. But all this is not to say that conservatives don't care for worker rights. But they do not think that labor unions are the right way to go about it.


What does Paul Johnson think about the Th century unions?

Paul Johnson, the British historian and author, critiques 20th-century labor unions for their role in fostering a culture of entitlement and dependency among workers. He argues that unions often prioritize their own power and interests over the well-being of the economy and the workers they represent. Johnson believes this has contributed to inefficiencies and a decline in industrial competitiveness. Overall, he sees unions as having a negative impact on both labor relations and economic progress.
