You're not willing to admit that some (NOT ALL) unions basically rob companies and their own members for little in return? The Pullman strike was a result of workers being treated so poorly that it was almost worse than slavery. When you have unions that insist on their member getting 80% of their pay after being laid off and until they find another job. That's not workers rights that's robbery. I believe whole-heartedly in workers rights, don't get me wrong, but what's the point of taking from the company so much so that it casues the company to go under. Forty hour work weeks, weekends is a far cry from sucking a company dry.
Where do I think unions belong today? Well, let's start with Wal Mart, then McDonald's, then the entire fast food industry. These are the workers that need real organization. Unlike the construction industry that's basically a bully system.
