Unions in developed nations often oppose imports from low-wage countries because of the negative impacts that occur to the workers. I personally do not believe that such competition is unfair. The union’s argument is in the best interest of the people they represent, and not the country as a whole. If imports are stopped from low-waged countries, it would force developed countries to use and produce local goods and jobs. With more jobs and the use of more local goods, this gives an advantage to the union workers, but leaves our country at a disadvantage. Some disadvantages include the price of goods increasing, other countries not wanting to work with us, we will lose out on products that we can’t make, and it’s ultimately not in the best interest for economic growth in the long run.…arrow_forward
