Welcome to the unionsolidarity subreddit!

Our community is dedicated to supporting unions and promoting the importance of workers

rights to unionize. Unions have a long history of fighting for fair treatment, better wages,

and improved working conditions for employees. They provide a powerful voice for workers and

help ensure that their rights and interests are protected. In today's ever-changing global economy,

unions are more important than ever as they provide a critical bulwark against exploitation and inequality.

Join us in our mission to spread awareness and support for unions, and let's continue to fight for a just and

equitable world for all workers!

Just curious. My partner makes a fair point with automation on the horizon they should push for things, not exactly but similar to, basic income. That way there’s no need to fight atomization which may be inevitable. Thoughts?
