“Historically, labor unions arose when people had gotten a taste of a different lifestyle and were willing to pay a lot more for their basic livelihood and had gotten into a fix they couldn't get out of - because they had accepted the unacceptable to begin with. Accepting something you have to form a labor union to fight after the fact only tells me that people were acting against their own best (or even good) interests for a long time. I don't see any rational, coherent explanation for this sort of behavior in humans, but it's all over the place.” PeopleHumansLongDifferentFactsFormFightingInterestPayActingAcceptingWillingTasteBehaviorLong TimeLaborUnionsAcceptedLifestyleRationalExplanationLivelihoodLabor UnionDifferent Lifestyles Author:Erik Naggum

But this approach takes monopolistic capitalism for granted, and accepts the unnatural division between property and responsibility as permanent. A much more radical solution is apt to come, and this may take either of two forms.” MayTwoWisdomFormPoliticsHoursResponsibilityAcceptingEconomyHigherDemandApproachSolutionsCapitalismLaborPropertyUnionsGrantedRadicalPermanentLiberalismInsecurityDivisionWagesUnnaturalPensionLabor Union Author:Fulton J.

“With a full century of contrary proof in our possession and despite our demonstrated capacity for cooperative teamwork, some among us seem to accept the shibboleth of an unbridgeable gap between those who hire and those who are employed. We miserably fail to challenge the lie that what is good for management is necessarily bad for labor; that for one side to profit, the other must be depressed. Such distorted doctrine is false and foreign to the American scene where common ideals and purpose permit us a common approach toward the common good.” SeemsLyingPurposeSidesChallengesCommonAcceptingFailingCenturySceneApproachCapacityIdealsLaborManagementProfitPossessionProofContraryDoctrineDespiteGapsTeamworkPermitEmployedEmployersCommon GoodCooperatives Author:Dwight D.
