Today I learned that 23% of the country have an IQ of that: 23
This totally brings to mind the anti labor and Union poster I saw for an airline where they said with your union dues within a couple of months you'll be able to buy that PS5.
I'm like: motherfucker, I can buy that PS5 immediately and have money left over IN ONE PAYCHECK because I'm in a union.
I work for a unionized airline and a lot of people bitch and moan that we have to pay dues roughly equal to 2% of our income. I always remind people that our non-unionized competitor pays their employees a flat 10% less than we get paid. So we make more, get union protection, and a ton of other benefits by being unionized. I have no problem paying union dues.
