Does Gallup even know what a "right-to-work" law is? They asked whether people would support a law that says people don't have to join a union. That's not a "right-to-work" law. There's already a federal law like this.

I guess I'm in the majority, more or less.  I support the right of unions to exist, but I'm also a big fan of right to work laws.  You can have a union, but I'll thank you not to force me to be in it to have a gig.

Even without a so-called "right-to-work" law, you don't have to join a union.

If you think you shouldn't have to join a union, then don't join one. It's that simple.

I want to know what would happen if you run a small business, and your religion requires you to allow unions and free bargaining. Wouldn't a "right-to-work" law violate freedom of religion?

I'd be dead by now if it wasn't for unions. That is literally true.
