In Florida and many other “right to work” states throughout all the US, except for the northeast/Bos-Wash corridor, the west coast and CO/NM, this concept of labor management relations is basically non existent. The 1%ers basically make the rules to maximize their profits with the support of all the Repubbas as well as many Corporate and Establishment Democrats who claim to compromize but overall side with the “man” over the workers. Basically the same tune that we heard concerning bankruptcy and finance reform.
Labor unions (if run competently unlike some like police/prison guard unions who basically exist just to obstruct justice) are a vital component to insure that workers are respectfully treated and given all the rights that should be guaranteed to our proud working men and women. I posted something from Mother Jones earlier on another strip about the RR strike. It is telling about how corrupt the 1%ers (including Warren Buffet) can be as they continue to accumulate wealth but treat the backbone of their corporations as simple figures and fodder, not human beings, just pawns in their game to acquire power and wealth:
The sad thing is many other emplyees are treated as bad or worse than RR employees at places like Amazon and in most industries in states like FL, TX, AL, GA, OK etc. where right to work laws prevent even the most mediocre of labor unions to organize. This, ladies and gentleman, royally sucks, just my $0.02!
