I fully agree with the two statements about companies abusing workers in right to work states. I've worked in California, Wisconsin, Florida and Georgia. Companies have too much power to illegally threaten and intimidate workers who voice any concern what so ever in regards to their workplace. I have been on both the management and union side of employment. I have personally been told from my superiors, as a supervisor, to "get that employee" and on the union side, I've represented some who deserved, in my eyes, to be fired. Both are legal under the law. However, stepping back and looking at it from an objective point of view, I do believe all most workers want is a days pay for a days work, just enough to support their families. In the current world we live in, which is controlled by corporations seeking to find the most profit, cheapest labor, and least amount of environmental restrictions regardless of what they do to the environment, our corporations and their leaders have lost sight of what it means to be socially responsible. Therefore, Labor, usually organized labor, has to uphold the system of checks and balances. And for some for strange reason, the media portrays them as villains. I sincerely believe that if America's workforce does not fight the great race to the bottom, all we will have left in America will be 2 classes, the rich and the poor. You can already see this happening in some states. Take Florida for example. Do your own study, see if you come to the same conclusions as I have. For America to continue to have a middle class, labor needs to have the laws rewritten from the current ones we have now which have been torn apart by pro-business lawyers and labor hating NLRB appointees to some laws that protect its own workers rights. And since no "one" worker will ever have the strength or fortitude to stand up to an employer without getting fired, who is violating laws, rights or other injustices, unions are a necessary force that should have their voices heard.
