    Love how Americans lack what we have too much of: unions. Like, unions are basically an extension of the government that doesn’t really do anything but get paid by the government to stay as big as they are.

    You definitely need unions to protect worker’s interests, but make sure it doesn’t end in like 3 unions controlled by the government

      we have a huge thing at the moment where the Deutsche Bahn is forced to increase pay of their employees by aprox. 400€ per month and has to pay them a bonus of aprox. 2800€. all because they joined a union. i love unions.

        No, they suck because of capitalism and greed.

        They do not suck because of unions. Not in the slightest.
