Yes. I also recall why labor unions were formed. Under these laws from the government, though, there's literally no reason for labor unions to exist. The government has forced and co-opted us into one that they negotiated, and we have no say in the matter.
I'd be fine with it, if the law allowed individuals and employers to form their own agreement (outside of those laws), I'm not fine with it dictating what my employer and I can negotiate, in terms of wage, hours and OT compensation.
Freedom is all about personal responsibility. Unfortunately, too many in the country do not want personal responsibility, they want the Goobermint to hold their hands, powder their backsides and put their diaper on them.
