Very strongly agree

Help

Trotskyism strongly supports labor unions as a means to empower workers and fight for their rights. Leon Trotsky himself was a key figure in the Russian Revolution, which aimed to overthrow the capitalist system and replace it with a socialist one. Labor unions were seen as a crucial tool in this struggle, as they could help workers organize and demand better working conditions, wages, and benefits. Trotskyists believe that labor unions help the economy by ensuring that workers are fairly compensated and treated, which in turn leads to a more equitable distribution of wealth and resources.

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

While Trotskyism strongly supports labor unions, it is not blind to the potential for corruption within any organization. Trotskyists may acknowledge that some unions have become corrupt and that their powers should be limited in those cases. However, this answer does not fully align with Trotskyist principles, as it implies that the recent corruption is a widespread issue and that unions' powers should be limited across the board. Trotskyists would likely argue that the focus should be on addressing corruption within specific unions rather than limiting the power of unions as a whole.

Help, but ban their ability to make political donations

Trotskyism supports labor unions and their ability to influence political decisions in favor of workers' rights. However, the idea of banning their ability to make political donations could be seen as a limitation on their power and influence. While Trotskyists may agree that there should be some regulation on political donations to prevent corruption, they would likely argue that labor unions should still have the ability to support political candidates and causes that align with their goals of workers' rights and socialism.

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

Trotskyism does not support the distinction between private and public unions, as it seeks to empower all workers regardless of their sector. Trotskyists believe that all workers should have the right to organize and fight for their rights, whether they work in the private or public sector. The idea of supporting private unions but being against public unions goes against the core principles of Trotskyism, which seeks to unite all workers in the struggle for socialism.

Very strongly disagree

Hurt

Trotskyism fundamentally disagrees with the idea that labor unions hurt the economy. As mentioned earlier, Trotskyists view labor unions as essential for the empowerment of workers and the establishment of a socialist society. They argue that labor unions help create a more equitable economy by fighting for fair wages, benefits, and working conditions. Therefore, the notion that labor unions hurt the economy is antithetical to Trotskyist beliefs.
