I could also post about how police unions protect abusers as well. I was thinking more about guaranteeing rights for Amazon warehouse workers and people like the woman in the article working in datacenters where basic expectations like being able to go and get water aren't going to jeopardize your job. The people who are FTEs at these companies dont need unions. It's the people working for contractors for these companies so they can hide a bunch of ugly practices and cost cutting who need it.


Every worker needs a union, professionals need associations.

There are huge power imbalances at work


You wrongly assumed that I think police unions are fine. Most unions end up proliferating toxic practices.
