Labor is a commodity and laborers should be able to leverage it.

Hard to leverage it when they are massively bringing in cheap ones every day. Liberals are extremely stupid people.

Well when you have an overabundance of unskilled workers it's hard to leverage anything. You have to bring true value to the picture.

You have no leverage when literally anybody or even a robot could do your job.

Low skill/ no skill labor has no power. As soon as it’s no longer economically viable to pay for, it’s replaced by automation. Grocery store workers started to unionize and we started seeing self checkout, online ordering of groceries, automated distribution, centralized meat shops (removed meat cutters from stores), automated scanning of shelves, etc. . Obama all but killed the full time position and unions are driving automation.

If completely closed, do you think the Bessemer, AL distribution facility will hurt Amazon very much? Or, if unionization spreads across the entire country?

Here's what I do not understand coming from the Pro-union voter. When you were offered a position, were you not told what is expected from you and how much you will make?

That really cuts both ways.
