Obviously the article is a bit inflammatory, but the overall message really isn’t wrong.
Unionize or die, basically. Obviously not literally, but one of the clearest lessons of the last year has been unions help preserve job security. It’s not a lesson that should have been needed, and frankly it’ll fall on far too many deaf ears, but hopefully more people realize it.
100% agree that unions are vital. That being said, I’m a current non-union employee that was promoted from union employees who I now supervise. They are in contract negotiations and I hope they get the best deal possible. I see it as mutually beneficial. Unions are absolutely necessary for workers rights. The “maybe they used to be” argument is total BS. Businesses exists to make money and if asking someone to do something unsafe makes a business more money, they will find people to do it every time. Bit of a digression on my part all to say I think I agree with you.
