Violence is not the way to settle debates over government policies on labor negotiation.
It is hard to believe that Michigan, which is UAW country, is going to have a law letting non-union members be hired.
The trade union movement is finished outside of government jobs. The passage of a right-to-work law in Michigan is a kind of tombstone, long overdue.
The state should not support either employers or employees. Contracts and competition should rule: employers vs. employers, employees vs. employees. The threat of violence in the marketplace should never be ratified by civil law.
