Without unions there would be no 40 hour work week, no minimum wage, no 5 day work week, and no such thing as retirement benefits, or any benefits.

Anyone who things different should read "The Jungle" by I think Upton Sinclaire.

You are being sold a bill of goods by corporations who want to beat down the American Dream.

I am now a physician, so I am not in a union, but I am thankful for unions and the civility they force upon employers.

Best,

U2bC
