Actually, abolishing unions and the minimum wage is NOT a bad idea!
Unions have become nothing more than giant "bullies"--How many of our airlines and other companies have to be forced out of business by their own uncompromizing, out-of-touch unionized employees before we realize this?
I've never been a fan of the minimum wage either...Why should an employer be forced to pay a worker a minimum amount of money, even if that worker is not actually WORTH that amount of money? Some minimum wage-level employees are excellent workers and deserve more. Many are NOT, and in fact barely even deserve the job AT ALL!
