The strategy (which again comes from union busting firms) is basically scaring people into sticking with the devil they know. If you plant the seed that things might get worse, people can be scared into keeping the status quo. It’s the same messaging used for conservative causes, as it happens. Renewable energy is different and might be worse! Isn’t that scary? All change is bad!
Sadly, it works. The success rate of these union busting consultants is very high.
