Americans are smart enough and strong enough to not have to hide behind a 'powerful union'. Unions are nothing more than legalized mob. The are worthless for productivity and a disaster for those who are eager to work.
What does this even mean? Smart and strong enough to get abused by the Company? lmao. Talk about being fucked so much you start to like it
that's because unlike in europe unions in the US did not manage to get the same level of worker protection changed into law. US unions need to act like a mob because corporations are to powerful. compare that to eg. germany where there are more laws to protect employees so that pretty much the only job unions have left to do is to negotiate salaries and benefits.
The United States has a rich history of effective organized labor. Not sure what you are getting at here.
