Period.

If you are pro-capitalism, you are Right Wing.

There is no pro-capitalist Left. That’s a polite fiction in the US that no one can afford any longer as the ecosystem is actually collapsing around us."

    Companies making more money does not translate to increased wages for workers.

    In a unionized company with periodic collective bargaining, it definitely gives workers the potential to earn more money, if the union is doing its job right.

    But, overall I agree with you. The potential drawbacks to unions are small potatoes compared to their real benefits. I think they’re one of the most powerful ways for the working class to take power back from the parasitic owning class.
