469: This That and the Other

Union Labor History, Strike Felonies, Workplace Urination

The hosts examine the evolution of labor unions, citing personal experiences with the Screen Actors Guild (SAG) and AFTRA. They discuss the legislative history that made general strikes and "wildcat" strikes, such as those at Walmart, federal felonies. A tangent explores the difficulty of firing unproductive workers in non-right-to-work states, including a humorous hypothetical about employees urinating on products.
