ChatGPT

Strongly agree

Help

Social liberalism generally supports labor unions as they believe that unions help protect workers' rights, ensure fair wages, and improve working conditions. Historical examples include the New Deal policies of the 1930s, which strengthened labor unions and contributed to the growth of the middle class. However, the score is not a full 5 because some social liberals may acknowledge that unions can sometimes have negative effects on the economy, such as discouraging investment or contributing to unemployment.

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

Some social liberals may agree with the idea that labor unions have recently become corrupt and should have their powers limited. They may point to examples of union leaders engaging in unethical behavior or using union funds for personal gain. However, this view is not universally held among social liberals, and many still believe that the overall benefits of labor unions outweigh any potential corruption.

Help, but ban their ability to make political donations

Some social liberals may support the idea of limiting labor unions' ability to make political donations, as they believe that money in politics can lead to corruption and undermine democracy. However, this view is not universally held among social liberals, and many may argue that labor unions should be allowed to make political donations as a means of advocating for workers' rights and promoting policies that benefit the working class.

Disagree

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

While social liberalism generally supports labor unions, some social liberals may agree with the idea of supporting private unions but being against public unions. They may argue that public unions can lead to inefficiencies in government services and contribute to budget deficits. However, this view is not universally held among social liberals, and many still support public unions as a means of protecting public sector workers' rights.
