As far being forced to fund unions, no thanks.
No one can force you to work at a unionized workplace, and why would you want to if they pay less and offer less job protection than non-unionaces?

Oh wait.

My salary has more than tripled in the last 10 years. if i was part of union and held to ####ing 3 year contracts i'd be much worse off.
Can you prove that?

Although in some instances i do see a little value in unions. But for most jobs i don't, plenty of competition, hard/good work and some scarcity goes along way in moving your salary up
Making it accessible to the people who need the “little value” that you see isn’t the same as suggesting every company should unionized.

If you work harder you’ll get ahead is about as reliable a theory as trickle down economics. There’s a finite number of good jobs out there so eventually somewhere down the line people working their asses off don’t have the option of moving up. Why not take care of those people while they’re in the queue so we don’t have as much reliance on government assistance?
