who said that? certainly wasn't me.
here is what i actually posted ... let's stay with that:
Who said that? You did bubba, and you posted it again for clarification...When you said:
" you post as if
every employee must remain content with whatever compensation his employer chooses to pay him for his labor."
That was you mischaracterizing my comment, then you went on to say:
"and in 'at will' employment, that is the circumstance."
No, that is NOT the circumstance. Each individual is able to go to his or her employer and negotiate with them for a raise, for better benefits, or to find work elsewhere....
But it didn't stop there, you finished up with:
"but
if an employee wants to negotiate terms and conditions of employment, he must participate as a bargaining unit."
Which is complete and utter bull. People negotiate terms, and conditions of employment every time they agree to work somewhere...At one time in my life I was a part of the Teamsters for a job, and that wasn't up to me. In order to work for that employer I was told that I must be a part of the union....When someone is offered a job, they are told what the job pays, what the benefits are, and it is at that point that they can ask for more, accept the terms, or decide not to work there and continue looking.
Your premise that only those in a union can negotiate is nonsense.
you post a fallacious statement and then you declare that erroneous statement to be false. too clever by half
Not being clever, it doesn't take that to see through your bs.
employees is what the court found those ball playing members of the university to be
you then equate the court's finding them to be employees as propaganda and union bullying
What "court"? The OP was this:
(CNN) -- The National Labor Relations Board in Chicago has ruled that football players at Northwestern University are employees and can unionize, the school said Wednesday.
The ruling has not yet been posted to the National Labor Relations Board website, but in a statement, Northwestern acknowledged the ruling and says it plans to appeal.
Northwestern fought the petition by saying its players are students, not employees.
Is the NLRB now a "court" in your mind?
that could be said of any group of employees seeking union representation. and your argument would be just as wrongheaded with them as with the players now unionized
All you are saying here is that you support unions....Shocking I tell ya....But it seems that with participation at, or near 7% nationwide you are in a minority, of a minority.
Your inability to comprehend is not my problem.
my challenge is for you to point to any rule broken by me within this thread
Your attempt here to try and get me to discuss it, is in itself a violation, but I won't do that because the rules are clearly accessible for anyone to click on and see bubba, and I am not a 'mod' so as you well know it is a violation to act as though I am one....I can offer you a link to the rules here:

And only suggest that you read #3 and #4.
Any further clarity you need, I suggest you contact a moderator and discuss it with them.
