Unions were created to solve 1800s problems like company towns and total disregard for safety in factories.
Today they are used by people who think they should be able to support a whole family as middle class while standing and monitoring the checkouts at Walmart. Even in things like trades where they are most effective, it's just a sap on money for dues so that your union threatens those who want to hire someone who doesn't pay the union. Sounds about like the Mafia.
I find it weird that Google is basically a company town in and of itself, but no one seems to care. Same with Microsoft, Apple and others.
When Twitter was bought, the company town idea was also kicked out.
Their company towns serve "gourmet" meals. It's (d)ifferent
In Seattle, you know which company owns that area. Amazon is near the gay district and Capitol Hill. Microsoft is in the white everything Redmond. Boeing is in the old work down Renton. Cthulhu is in Tacoma.

Fuck off kike, why should I be condemned to have my genes die out just because I'm forced to work an actually useful job.

if you can support yourself naturally, feel free to leave the workforce. most people can't because most people did not grow up in a society of self-sustenance. rather, we are a society of trading in trading is all we know how to do.
you can learn to self-sustain, you can trade your labor for money that you can buy goods and services with, or you can die of starvation. you have to pick one.
