Why do libs say a law is bad if it prevents unions from forcing you to pay as a condition of employment?

[stephon14]

They ignore the ACTUAL law and say the "right to work" law includes things like:
The law will put an end to unions. (LIE!)
The law prevents you from joining a Union and paying Union dues. (LIE!)
The law prevents the formation of Unions (LIE!)
The law allows you to be fired for joining a union (LIE!)
The law makes you a a slave for any EVIL and GREEDY corporation(LIE!)
The law make a dangerous work place(LIE!)
The law prevents all progress.(LIE!)
The law prevents collective bargaining and forces workers to be "bent over"(LIE!)
The law promotes child labor.(LIE!)
The law forces jobs to "comi China"(LIE!)
The law says unions would have to give you benefits for free.(LIE!)
The law says catholic churches don't have to provide contraception.(LIE!)
Thw law makes employers outsource jobs (LIE!)
The law allows employers to fire you. (LIE!, employers always had that right)
The law promotes welfare (LIE!)

You can always get a job elsewhere(Hint: 8.3% Official unemployment and 16% real unemployment, choices ARE limited)
These things (and many more) have all been used by liberals as excuses to attack republicans on the "right to work" law, yet none of them have anything to do with the actual law.

As you can see most comments have nothing to do with the law which prevents employers from requiring the payment of union dues as a condition of employment. This is often required by unions in contracts, so join the Union and pay or NO JOB. Basically it is racketeering.

Libs won't attack the law directly because they know they would be trashed.
Solution? Make up lies. I've seen some of those answers too.
It is kind of sickening to see.

[felabeorbt]

Attacking the law directly is a failure so the libs lie and claim other things.
A bit of a rant but
I have seen many of those lies repeatedly
See! Max is a perfect example.

If you want the benefits of union membership you should be prepared to pay your share of the costs of running the union.

Who are these phantom libs you talk about?

It sounds more like someone told you this what liberal people think.

Right to work for less laws.

Federal law *already* protects workers who don’t want to join a union to get or keep their jobs. Supporters claim right to work laws protect employees from being forced to join unions. Federal law already does this, as well as protecting nonmembers from paying for union activities that violate their religious or political beliefs. This individual freedom argument is a sham.

The average worker in a right to work state makes about $5,333 a year less than workers in other states.

According to the federal Bureau of Labor Statistics, the rate of workplace deaths is 51 percent higher in states with right to work, where unions can’t speak up on behalf of workers.

Non-union members do indeed get all the benefits of collective bargaining granted to union members. Right to work laws say unions must represent all eligible employees, whether they pay dues or not. This forces unions to use their time and members’ dues money to provide union benefits to free riders who are not willing to pay their fair share.
