Social Democracy

Strongly agree

Help

Social Democracy generally supports labor unions as they help workers negotiate better wages, working conditions, and benefits. Historical examples include the New Deal era in the United States, where labor unions played a significant role in shaping labor policies and improving workers' rights. However, the score is not a full 5 because some Social Democrats may acknowledge potential issues with unions, such as corruption or inefficiencies.

Agree

Help, in theory but have recently become corrupt and should have their powers limited

While Social Democracy supports labor unions, some adherents may agree that there have been instances of corruption or abuse of power within unions. They may argue for reforms to address these issues while still maintaining the overall benefits that unions provide to workers. Examples of union corruption include the Teamsters Union under Jimmy Hoffa, which faced allegations of ties to organized crime and financial mismanagement.

Slightly agree

Help, but ban their ability to make political donations

Some Social Democrats may agree with limiting the political influence of labor unions by banning their ability to make political donations. They may argue that this would help reduce corruption and ensure that unions focus on their primary mission of advocating for workers' rights. However, the score is low because many Social Democrats also believe that unions should have a voice in the political process, as they represent the interests of workers and help balance the influence of corporate interests.

Disagree

Hurt, I support some private unions but am strongly against public unions

Social Democracy typically supports both private and public unions, as they believe that workers in both sectors should have the right to organize and negotiate for better conditions. However, the score is not a full -5 because some Social Democrats may be more critical of public unions, especially if they believe that these unions have too much influence over government policies or budgets.
