Is this right or wrong?  Why do you feel that way?  

When I was a young boy, things seemed to be going pretty good and union membership was higher than now.  Or, am I mistaken about that?

One more time. union membership and high employment existed in the last forties to early sixties.  This golden period existed because the US was the last man standing after WWII. Only our factories escaped almost total destruction, plus our workforce was not extremely decimated.  Unions had as much to do with this as wet sidewalks causing rain.

 

Unions were an answer to the old command and control business management system which no longer exists,  Union membership begin to decline when workers realized they were no longer getting their money's worth.

 

What an utterly stupid statement dire. ....in your world you think workers are more satisfied with less pay. Quit thinking for others dire. Your loyalty to the Atlanta elite is showing sucker.
