We are a Pro-Conservative forum. Posts must have a clear pro-conservative, or anti left-wing bias. We are interested in promoting conservatism and discussing things that might get ignored elsewhere. All sources are acceptable, however reputable sources with a reputation for factual reporting are preferred.

Dissent is allowed in the comments, but try to be constructive; if you do not agree, then provide a reason which is backed up by references or a reasonable alternative interpretation of the provided facts. That means the left wing is welcome to state their opinions, but please keep it in good faith.
A polite request, not a rule, if you feel the need to report a comment, please don't reply to it.

Minimum wage is a crappy way to improve wages. The better option are well regulated trade and labor unions, and mandatory labor representation. But since this is America, we've got a minimum wage, and that's about the best we're going to get.
Mandatory labor representation is a terrible idea, a union will have no motivation to work to better lives of the employees.
A union is only beholden to the employees rather than management.
A union where employees are forced to join is beholden to no-one
Except the people that elect it's leaders, which would be the employees.
There is no requirement for union reps to be elected
@jimbolauski @Skyrmir It seems less than democratic to me that employees who voted in a union many decades ago got to have the final say in whether people who work there generations later are unionized.
