Comment on Foreign tech workers spurn US as if it were a rabid dog

Thus it can be seen how when industries aren’t mitigated in their self defeating behavior by unions, the associated job market and domestic industry can be driven to collapse and there will be zero ability to slow the process down once it begins spiralling.
Unions, even if you are a super smart techbro you still need them.
Conversely, the company I’m working for has been around for 45 years, isn’t unionized, promotes from inside, and provides reasonable wages and great benefits.
They know that if they mess that up, we’ll all leave and go work somewhere else.
Of course, the company isn’t American, which likely makes a difference.
Oh believe me I have also seen precarious tall stacks of rocks that manage to stay standing for much longer than you would expect. Usually it is because they are surrounded by a forest of other much more solid formations of rocks.
Sometimes though I see someone waving to me smugly from a precarious stack of rocks amidst a sea of precarious stacks of rocks and I chuckle to myself and wave back condescendingly and then feel guilty about it.

I wish union work was more common place. It seems where I live unions are mostly for blue collar work and less common than I would hope to see.
