This labor day, why not look into supporting unions? Historically, unions have been there to protect the rights of those who are employed. They serve as a bargaining agency when there is a dispute between the laborers and the employers. Many companies are anti-union, and some even punish their employees for being members of unions. This hundred-year old holiday gives us all a day off, but while you’re tubing and drinking beer, try to remember the real reason for the holiday: To make employment conditions more humane and fair to all.
