Jack booted tyranny is what corporations inflicted on workers before the rise of union. 12 hour days, 6 days a week in dangerous working conditions for measly pay, often working next to child laborers. Unions through collective bargaining, which so called right to work undermines, were able to alleviate the worst of those conditions and give workers self respect and dignity. We can see the beginning of a return to previous conditions in right to work states.
And no where do you mention OSHA or other instances of local, state and federal laws that have been implemented to protect modern employees. You act like the only recourse an employee has is through union intervention. This may have been true in bygone generations, but today, it is a leftist false narrative scare tactic.
When begun, unions were useful, needed and indeed alleviated the worst conditions and gave employees self respect and dignity. Since that time, local, state and federal laws have been implemented that protect employees. Some employers may try to skirt the law, but if found, they are dealt with severely.
Unions today have outlived the majority of their usefulness and have become nothing less than a facade of their former selves. Unions have become nearly entirely corrupt to the point they survive not for the employee but for, 1. the fat-cat union bosses and 2. as a money pit for the alt-left. Unions are a major reason for the abysmal education system forced upon our children and the ever-increasing financial burden on government and government projects.
Right to work states allow employees the safety of not having to be a part of the corrupt unions to get a job and then also not be fired from a job if they are not a member of the corrupt unions.
