Labor arbitration and unions in the United States
A defender argues that binding arbitration on both sides has faded in the United States. He cites the coal strike where government arbitration favored unions, leaving mine owners with little say. The piece critiques union leaders for devaluing employer rights and discusses Thurman Arnold’s stance on compelling unions to accept arbitration rules. It warns that labor pushing only its terms risks national ruin and undermines collective bargaining.
