    Lmao bullshit. A Union is literally an equalizer when it comes to bargaining power. It’s why they were created in the first place. You claim that being specialized in a field automatically makes you immune to wage stagnation, but if you as a worker(even in a specialized field) are dealing with a monopsony, you are fucked.

      Oftentimes being in a specialized field is a double edged sword for your own wage too. Sure, there’s not many of you for them to hire, but also there’s not many of them for you to go to and if you piss any of them off, you’re screwed out of any future job.

      Making a union even more important I think.
