    What’s crazy is I hear unionization is usually more expensive to fight against, but these CEO’s are essentially morally opposed to it. Every time I hear stories of these people their lives would have been so much easier and their businesses more profitable but they just cannot stand people unionizing.

      They also have the option of not treating them like shit. Happy workers don’t usually want to unionize.

        I’m a fairly happy employee and I want to unionize.

        I remember working through the Great Recession and I never want to take a 7 year pay cut again.
