From Wisconsin to Washington, DC, the claims are made: unions are responsible for budget deficits, and their members are overpaid and enjoy cushy benefits. The only way to save the American economy, pundits claim, is to weaken the labor movement, strip workers of collective bargaining rights, and champion private industry. In Theyre Bankrupting Us!: And 20 Other Myths about Unions, labor leader Bill Fletcher Jr. makes sense of this debate as he unpacks the twentyone myths most often cited by antiunion propagandists. Drawing on his experiences as a longtime labor activist and organizer, Fletcher traces the historical roots of these myths and provides an honest assessment of the missteps of the labor movement. He reveals many of labors significant contributions, such as establishing the fortyhour work week and minimum wage, guaranteeing safe workplaces, and fighting for equity within the workforce. This timely, accessible, warts and all book argues, ultimately, that unions are necessary for democracy and ensure economic and social justice for all people.
