SCOTUS ruled mandatory membership in public unions is unconstitutional

2019-09-12 02:11:18 UTC  

The power of unions is the power to strike. If you strike against a private company, you’re asking for a pay rise from that companies owner. That’s fine. The company owner has options: a) Let them quit, b) hope they cave in or c) cave in yourself. And that’s fine too. It’s up to the owner to react.

If you strike against the government, you’re asking for a pay rise from *me*.

Fuck no, get fucked.

I don’t have the power to bargain with you, all I can do is vote. So if you work for the government and want a fucking pay rise, lobby for it. The politicians can campaign on it, and I can either vote them in or vote against them.

2019-09-12 02:11:41 UTC  

Fuck lobbies

2019-09-12 02:12:01 UTC  

I hope no one lobbies the government, what they should do is find another job

2019-09-12 02:12:14 UTC  

Then if enough people do that the government will raise wages

2019-09-12 02:12:19 UTC  

Lobbys are shit. But they’re better than public sector unions.
I’d prefer the lesser of two evils.

2019-09-12 02:12:29 UTC  

I’d take both down

2019-09-12 02:12:35 UTC  

Why stop at one parasite?

2019-09-12 02:13:46 UTC  

Honestly its just a hang over from back when we had unions in full force.

2019-09-12 02:14:00 UTC  

Unions = higher wages
Higher Wages = good

2019-09-12 02:14:07 UTC  

Therefore everyone needs a union

2019-09-12 02:14:27 UTC  

That’s true

2019-09-12 02:14:28 UTC  

However, we then realized that maybe allowing the unions to kill sectors of the economy is a bad idea?

2019-09-12 02:14:44 UTC  

how come unions = higher wages

2019-09-12 02:15:06 UTC  

So we did a really stupid thing and de facto got rid of unions in the private sector... but... some unions then survived.

2019-09-12 02:15:16 UTC  

it was more about working conditions in the beginning

2019-09-12 02:15:25 UTC  

And the ones that survived were only those in the public sector.

2019-09-12 02:15:41 UTC  

like soviet unions had zero agenda on wages

2019-09-12 02:15:48 UTC  

*Because the only sectors that weren't murdered by the unions were those subsidized by the Government purse*

2019-09-12 02:16:38 UTC  

It depends on how the government empowers unions.
A private sector union shouldn’t even be recognized by the government. It should be entirely between an employer and their employees.
But lefties don’t agree with that. Over time they legislated for legal powers. In some parts of the world companies have to keep paying employees even if they’re striking. It’s fkn bananas.

2019-09-12 02:17:27 UTC  

If the government has nothing to do with unions, private sector unions are fine. It’s just folks bargaining. Go nuts.

2019-09-12 02:18:07 UTC  

Salutations gentlemen

2019-09-12 02:18:38 UTC  

Aye

2019-09-12 02:19:17 UTC

2019-09-12 02:21:36 UTC  

Pewdiepie always made children's content

2019-09-12 02:22:43 UTC

2019-09-12 02:22:55 UTC  

The belief is that now he is going to submit to YouTube’s “advertiser friendly” standards

2019-09-12 02:23:16 UTC  

And completely change his brand from “edgiboi” to “politically correct”

2019-09-12 02:23:33 UTC  

he already did this, no more controversial pew news or shit like that, guarantee

2019-09-12 02:24:03 UTC  

I hope it’s part of some kind of elaborate gotcha that pewds is planning.
But who knows?

2019-09-12 02:24:38 UTC  

but to be honest that "subscribe to pewdipie" from a new zealand shooter prolly really fucked him up

2019-09-12 02:27:28 UTC  

Probably

2019-09-12 02:27:44 UTC  

But still, it’s disappointing

2019-09-12 02:27:55 UTC  

very

2019-09-12 02:28:14 UTC  

we still talking about pewd?
