    Are you an American? Are you talking to Americans? The Guardian is corporate-owned propaganda.

    Correct me if I'm wrong or ootl but isn't the guardian an independent media company?

    They're owned by Scott Trust, a venture capital firm.

    There's also a voluntary cost associated with the union. I can foresee people liking it on paper, but backing away when it's time to forfeit $90 per month. (I don't know the average cost, but that's what I pay). You gotta be in a good spot to support it.
