"Since when did health insurance and pensions become bad words?"

Mick,

They aren't. But since when is it a company's responsibility to offer health insurance and pensions?

To my knowledge, and I'm no expert, but it seems that a business' responsibility is to make money. It may be a foreign concept to some but that's the way I see it.

Now if a business wants to offer to it's employees benefits such as health insurance and pensions then fine. They're well within their legal right to do so. It's, quite frankly, good business practice and will promote higher or greater productivity and maybe even loyalty from the employee.

So in my view, it's just as legal for a business to ward off a union as it is for an individual to try and organize one.

Tell me where I'm wrong in this line of thinking.


YES!!
