GOP governors swing into action:
“In America, we respect our workforce and we do not need to pay a third party to tell us who can pick up a box or flip a switch. No one wants to hear this, but it’s the ugly reality. … The experience in our states is when employees have a direct relationship with their employers, that makes for a more positive working environment. They can advocate for themselves and what is important to them without outside influence. …"

"According to Goldman Sachs, American corporations will spend over a trillion dollars this year on stock buybacks alone, all money that could instead have better compensated workers and thus strengthened our working class."

I'd like to suggest buybacks be made illegal like they used to be.

"Women workers without a union earn only 78 percent of men; unionized women workers take home fully 94 percent of what men earn."

Well, Hell. Maybe girls should be unionizing at the age of 5.

...and maybe unions should be less misogynistic and ensure that women make 100% of what men make. 94% is bullshit.

Thank you for directly holding my leash, sir! The personal touch really makes the whippings worthwhile. Thank goodness there are none of those dastardly outsiders to y'know save me or anything. We're such a big happy family team, the commies are just jealously trying to ruin our love! What do you mean I'm being let go?

Just a pity the electorate cannot advocate (to elected officials) for themselves without the outside interference of donors and lobbyists.

That would interfere with the good, orderly function of our plutocratic overlords!
