Hi Allison! You really hit a home run on the salient point about how Unions are as out of date as most of our Institutions are! While I am not well read in the labor issues in Baseball; what is clear is our ability to identify talent is so methodical and efficient that it is creating a wider gap between the productive and the unproductive. Heck, you could write an Enthymeme about Hollywood labor! Let’s face it, Sir Ian McKellan is a true actor but probably can’t command the same wage as say someone like Harrison Ford and yet talent between both of them does not compare! At least in Baseball, you can see how many home runs, but the actors are based purely on a popularity contest. I think this is true in many workplaces which is why I decided to do self employment since I am not much for brown nosing and tend to tell you what you don’t want to hear, even if it costs me my job.
I think I will give up on pensions and listen to Warren Buffet- invest in what you know and keep your wits. Disney is not going anywhere….but they sure know how to get rid of American IT Workers for people on H1B Visas! 🤣🤣
