but I absolutely think we should ban all US-based companies from manufacturing products in countries where they do not have to pay their workers fairly, and ban non-US-based companies from selling them here.
I would like to subscribe to...wait.
Well, what you said right there. Why we do not do this I do not know (I do know, corporate greed is why, they will claim it is because Americans are addicted to cheap goods, but it is actually OUR companies making bank off slave labor and pushing it off as our greed that is the thing) but it should be done
The last time Volkswagen voted to unionize in Tennessee, a state legislator threw a monkey wrench in the whole thing, getting the Union voted down.
VW was pissed. They're in favor of Unions, because it allows them to standardize policies and procedures across a workforce scattered around the globe, saving them money in administrative costs, and this asshole in Nashville fucked everything up because Socialism!
Well of COURSE Bob Smith the line welder, with his direct relationship with Jim Farley the CEO of Ford, can just stop into his mansion for a chat every time he feels concern about his pay and working conditions. Ol’ Jim is quite the joker, and may set the dogs on Bob, but he is always welcome to stop by.
Oh, I see Brian Kemp from Georgia is in that list. Well that list could've been one shorter if people in GA weren't busy screwing Stacey Abrams over (at the same time bringing Joe Biden, Raphael Warnock and Jon Ossoff over the finish line)!
I think the overreach of corporations is going to have the same effect as the overreach of the GOP on abortion restrictions and other repressive social policy. Workers are tired of seeing executives get million dollar bonuses for denying workers a living income. Where the stockholders are the only party management cares about. And that the only solution is to unite as a union and demand a fair share of the profit they created. Just like I hope it's becoming my obvious to women, minorities, and intelligent men that the only way to overcome the christian fundamentalism of infecting government is to vote Tue assholes out of office. It's become very obvious the courts will not step in for women or workers so the only option is to get control of legislative and executive branch seats and pass laws.
And those rotten Southern governors [redundant] also gave those non-union companies hundreds of millions of $$$$$$$$$$$$ in all sorts of subsidies to open the plants there.
Always remember that Hillary used to organize WalMart union-busting seminars.

Did Mercedes already move their plant to Arizona? Will they stop at nothing?!
I look forward to the continued vitality of the union movement in America with giggly-assed GLEE!

We the white god-fearing citizens of Rock Ridge...
'bout damn time unions got their poop in a group and made a comeback.
I thank God for the union everyday.

My father was a UAW autoworker, and the union was the only reason he was able to make a decent living.
Fuck that idiot Kay Ivey and all the rest of the management-fluffing assholes who call themselves public servants.

Lying liars continue to lie their asses off.
... film at 11.
And yet, when November rolls around, at least some of these workers will still vote GQP
OK, why wasn't Smokey Eyed Huckabee-Sanders signed up for this union-busting bullshit? Too busy defending her podium?
And those rotten Southern governors [redundant] also gave those non-union companies hundreds of millions of $$$$$$$$$$$$ in all sorts of subsidies to open the plants there.
“The actual ‘ugly reality’ is that if businesses cannot afford to pay their workers fairly, then they shouldn’t exist.”
Fuckin’ A.
