Even voicing the opinion that Right to Work is a good idea causes the pro-union folks to act like they're going rabid, acting like you're trying to tear down their entire world. Passing a Right to Work law is, in the eyes of many, a flat out attack on unions and an act of union busting.

Rendering the contracts that unions sign with employers unenforceable is pretty much the definition of union busting.

It's explicitly about preventing two consenting parties (union + employer) from freely entering into a contract.

Oddly enough there are some (libertarians) people who consider the right to enter into a contract freely pretty sacrosanct, but I've yet to hear one complain about this law.
