[quote=Anonymous]Okay, I'll bite. I understand what unions did for our country. I also understand the needs for certain unions (carpenters, electricians, HVAC, plumbers, etc.) I think it's great to have a group of skilled workers with a specialized trade and to push them to further their education while helping them find jobs. When it comes to private companies that have unionized over the years (such as Verizon), I completely disagree with it. I think that a lot of those workers are undereducated and are doing menial work for a premium wage. Hire some recent college grads to do this work. They are probably more educated, more business savvy, and have stronger interpersonal skills and a better work ethic because they are hungry for a paycheck. Paying someone $70k per year who has the brains of a McDonald's cashier isn't healthy for our economy. [/quote]
