DO YOU FAVOR A UNION?
The truth is that you will never become wealthy working at a job that might offer Union Membership. But in the United States the wages for those Union jobs (called the Union Premium)average 15 to 20 percent higher with a Union than without one. That amount is ALWAYS more than enough to pay your Union dues.
Some people say that the Union should not be involved in making decisions for the company. Think about it: you are saying that you do not have the intelligence that your Supervisor has. YOU are the Union. In fact, when it comes to a company approaching insolvency, it is MUCH LESS likely that a Unionized company will become insolvent.
If you think it is not right to require everyone to join the Union then you are making the argument for the "Right-to-Work" States. We call those the right to work for less states, and ALL their wages are much less than in other states. If you are in a Right-to-Work state then you may, in fact, be better off without a Union since you can save those costly Union Dues.
