So for those who oppose unions like Skans, I must ask : what is it about prosperity that you hate?

The result is an economy well positioned to supply "high value add" products to export markets.
In less developed economies, unions can certainly accelerate the distribution of "national income", but if the product they generate are commodities, unions can become sources of financial (and economic) inflexibility - like the domestic agriculture sectors of small advanced economies.

He's too stupid to understand what that means, so I will break it down.
Prescriptive positions are taken based on some set of beliefs - a pre-approved, pre-adopted template, so to speak. Descriptive positions are taken based on realities on the ground. A good example of the dichotomy is when you talk animal welfare with most libertarians. Their prescriptive view is that since animals have no rights to violate, animal cruelty laws = overstep. My descriptive view is that any and all cruelty to animals is a breach of the peace, since a normal, ordinary man would feel compelled to kick you in the nuts for that ****. Ergo, animal cruelty laws =/= overstep.
Anyway, he slobbers about unions because he's stupid - and his template says they are "bad," no matter WHAT history shows to be so. The fact that the "greatest generation" was extremely supportive of unions causes the lickspittle no cognitive disonance - he will lick their balls while disagreeing with everything they believed, and think himself quite "patriotic."
He's been conditioned to screech about china and cuba when the word "union" comes up - he has ruined a number of weddings with his pavlovian ranting and frothing. Slowly he turns, step by step , inch by inch...
He's just a lazy, entitled **** is my guess.SJConspirator » 21 Jul 2022, 9:06 am » wrote: ↑ Its fascinating to see because he is obviously intelligent, but utterly controlled by his own delusions. The capacity of the mind to maintain faith despite mountains of evidence against it

That’s quite the loaded question . Assuming facts a priori not in evidence - that millions of union members don’t like unions.. highly unlikely.Warcok » 21 Jul 2022, 9:26 am » wrote: ↑ Gonna have to ask the millions of former union members what it is about unions they don't like.

Producing food domestically is both a cultural and national security issue. However, food is not (relatively) abundant and cheap because the world relied on domestic markets. It is so because logistics have improved to the point where food produced in areas of greatest natural advantage can now be delivered globally.
So what happens to the market for locally grown agricultural product in France, for example, when it is far cheaper to import wheat from Ukraine, and fruit and vegetables from North Africa? They require some form of price protection to remain in business. This raises costs for french consumers, and when negotiations break down, the conflicts can tie up large parts of the country at considerable economic cost.

I was kind enough to humor your second unsupported assumption, that labor membership has dropped dramatically. You're welcome
