I have to agree. I think the idea of unions was to protect abused workers from
low pay and long ours. Since the beginning, the pendulum has swung way in favor
of unions. The biggest thing I see is plants closing down in urban areas, and
moving to cheaper rural areas. And then from there, just overseas. I would wish
they would find a middle ground, where they can both be happy. I am not against
unions, but I have seen some friends lose lifetime jobs in plants, where they
where making $25 per hour, and the plant closed and moved to NC, and hired
workers at $8-10. Now, they can't find any work for unless it's $10-15.
