He doesnt believe his employees need a union because I dont know about you but if I owned a company Id hope that my people felt looked after well enough that they didnt feel like they needed one either.

If I owned my own company I would DEMAND my employees unionize. You can never trust your boss to have your back. Especially when your boss is me. Because I know me, and I suck.

Also, having a union makes contract negotiations simple, because the contract has already been negotiated with the union.

But here's the thing: the union ensures the contract is fair, and a lot of businesses don't like dealing fairly with their employees.
