I can never stick to a position…
I am a constant doubter when it comes to most political issues. With the labor struggle in Wisconsin, I still stand firm in my belief that there is an enormous need for reform among how public employees are managed. Basically, they should be subject to the same system of incentives as private employees. But the more I think about what Walker is trying to do, the more I doubt my original stance.
Isn’t unionizing basically just freedom of assembly made manifest in the workforce?
It is one thing if we return to the old days of union thugs harassing non-union workers, but if people are just getting together to talk about the quality of the workplace it seems like that’s their right. More to the point it seems like there is middle ground to be struck….
Workers should be able to unionize. The state should be able to hire non-union workers and fire employees at will.
