Comment on Cathy, do the math.
Objection@lemmy.ml 1 week agoAren’t people with college educations more likely to end up in a union? One of the reasons some places don’t want to hire “overqualified” people is because they’re afraid of unionization.
There’s a variety of reasons for the decline of unions in the US, the main ones being:
-
Anti-union laws and propaganda (Mike Rowe being a big one)
-
Offshoring of manufacturing jobs
-
Major unions defanging themselves by purging radicals/communists to prove they’re “one of the good ones”

No most higher education jobs aren’t union. Do you bother to lookup anything by yourself before you speak about things?

Literally not what I said at all. I said that you are more likely to be in a union if you have more education. Do you bother looking anything up before trying to incorrectly correct others?
At this point it’s extremely obvious that you’re just trolling.

I’m not going to raise time to look, Im fairly sure someone did but regardless it’s widely known easily available information.

It’s extremely obvious you are trolling or legitimately ignorant on basic civics, take your pick.

Neither of those links are remotely relevant to how higher education correlates with union membership. Trolling.
