Trust, But Verify…And, Why Unions?

No question each of us should learn all he can about his body. It’s all we have, and without it working well, life is shorter and messier. Some guys pay more attention to their cars or computers than their body.

Sheesh, lighten up, folks.

A lot of comments disparaging unions and the workers who want them. Especially about lower wage workers who haven’t settled down yet.

Seems to me people in these kinds of jobs feel powerless to control their work life — when they come in, what they’re told to do, etc. Yeah, that’s the way of the world down there at the bottom of the pyramid. So maybe pushing for a union gives one a sense of purpose and control, along with a feeling of belonging.

There’s power in numbers, when people organize. Maybe that’s what y’all are afraid of, why you want to deny the strikers any sense of agency in their lives.
