May not seem like that in the USA but it sure does in the UK.
A fundamental principle dating back to the Tolpuddle Martyrs era is a one of "The workers/membership are the union".

I think the US unions are different from the UK ones when it comes to operations? I think the US unions are too demanding and killing off their own industries (see US auto:shifty:) The industry I work in, the semi-conductor industry thrives, because it is not unionized imo, as it is too competitive. The funny thing is, in Korea their semi-conductor industry is unionized and they get worked like dogs.:o
I think the anti-christ unions are the public employee ones (NOT including the police unions, I think they function how a union is supposed to function, but I digress). They are totally disconected from reality. They only take wealth but do not generate any.
