is it like a union busting decision that they're making??


Read the article and this stuff a bit over my head.

This result would override what courts have repeatedly called the “core protection” of the 1932 Norris-LaGuardia Act (Norris-LaGuardia) and the 1935 National Labor Relations Act (NLRA)—that employees, whether represented by a union or not, may by right engage in “concerted activities for the purpose of … mutual aid or protection.”
.
Nevertheless, one obvious way for employees to vindicate their rights was through resort to the legal system, and a possible means for employers to foreclose such suits would be to require their workers to sign contracts negating the right to sue or sue jointly.

Such a provision in an employment agreement might well have been enforceable under state law as a version of “yellow dog” contracts, the paradigmatic form of which barred employees from joining unions. Fortunately for workers, the Norris–LaGuardia Act declared classic yellow dog agreements contrary to federal labor policy. It declared that workers “shall be free from the interference, restraint, or coercion of employers of labor, or their agents, in the designation of such representatives or in self-organization or in other concerted activities for the purpose of collective bargaining or other mutual aid or protection.”

Interesting case,but it would be nice if these writer would make an effort to write analysis of these cases in a more communicable way. Having to re read and reference earlier parts of a paper is a deterrent from many people figuring out wtf the whole thing is about.

Unions aren't inherently good, and keep a lot of shytty folks from being fired. They def have their place in terms of labor negotiations, but they are a form of bureaucracy that has outgrown the initial purpose. If y'all are interested in unions do some googles about airline union contract negotiations and the power that pilots hold over companies. shyts wild.

Union participation is at record lows and wages have stagnated for the last 30 years. Coincidence?

How has the union out grown it’s purpose when wages and workers rights have not improved as a result of a growing economy? What would indicate to any reasonable person that workers now are in such an amicable position that they no longer need to collectively bargain with their employers? How outrageously stupid can people be on this sub forum?

I only dapped the first part of your post originally because the guy wrote the article in a way that was hard to understand.

But this shyt right here is outright nonsense.

I hope that your endorsement of Soros is a failed attempt at irony.

Soros, a billionaire who spent the majority of his life using his wealth to fight communism in the East, is to Marxism what you are to economics.

The fact that you believe George Soros to be a Marxist in any shape way or form shows how delusionally stupid you really are
