    That was fascinating, thanks for sharing. I only wish more people would read this kind of stuff and realize what life could be like when they give up the hard-earned benefits unions of the past got for us.

    Nothing was given, it was all fought for.

      What do you think of UBI in relation to unions and them potentially losing leverage?

        Interesting question. I’ve never really considered it before, and I don’t really know if I can competently comment.
