My union got me more money in a single year than I will pay in dues for my entire career in at least 3 separate years in the 6 years I've been working for my employer.

I get leave each year that is slightly more than 20 percent of my work hours.

Unions are amazing for workers.

It's amazing how anti union the US is. Unionise everything unless you want to be bent over and fucked by the long dick of capitalism.

My family is from West Virginia. They literally had battles for unions. Unions saved the state for a little while. Everyone I know there is also very anti-union. I don't know how. This is why history is important, but they won't teach you these parts of history in school.
