    This will get you to be a union member and you will be able to bargain collectively.

    The high paying jobs will come once enough people are organized in your industry. You can’t have it the other way around.

      I’d be unemployed, who would I be collectively bargaining with, the welfare office?

      The high paying jobs already exist. They exist because the industry is already organized. Those high paying jobs are union jobs. Jobs I’m ineligible for because I’m not in the union. Because I’m still on the waitlist.

      How does that help me at all?
