Vermont doesn't need more business from companies that choose to do business here because they can exploit Vermont residents more than they can exploit residents of another state, it needs businesses that can pay a thriving wage, and unions are a way to guarantee that. Almost no businesses are just going to hand over a thriving wage without being made to.

Yeah, let's be real, because all of the businesses in Vermont aren't part of the skiing industry or skiing-adjacent industries.
