Where do labor unions have the most influence in?

Answer 1

If you count the PKK(Kurdistan Worker's Party), then Turkey is the country where labor unions have the most influence. The PKK is basically a labor union turned terrorist. They have influence all over the world especially in Turkey and in Italy. The U.S. is not so big on labor unions anymore. They are a thing mainly of the past. The Southern U.S. has the biggest unions. Unlike in the North East where the biggest labor Union may be Verizon's CWA. When Society in a certain area develops enough it realizes that just like Socialism, unions are flawed in the way that not everyone should be equally rewarded because not everyone works at the same intensity level. This is normally the case in Unions; some people work their ass off and get paid the same as their coworkers that float by using the minimum effort that they can. Therefore, unions actually destroy productivity. This was not always the case. In the early 1900's, labor unions were a very important part of business because everyone worked with high levels of effort, and the business leaders did not reward their valiant efforts and the many fruits of their labors. That's not a strike against today's generations, it's just a fact that society has hit a stage of laziness for various reasons. Luckily, Society is a constantly developing idea. It is constantly melting into different stages. Therefore, Society will eventually become hard workers again. This is when labor unions will again become a large part of society. That is unless our economic processes advance to a point where labor unions become useless and an idea of absolute absurdity.
