Stevie Wonder, we do NOT lock people in factories with no windows, and make them work 20 hour days anymore. This is not the 1920s. Unions have long ago burned up their usefulness. Union members, for the most part, are not the problem. Union leaders that create controversy, in order to make the union members think that they (the union leaders/negotiators) are earning their keep, are the problem.

Widget Inc-"we will offer your members a month of paid vacation per year, full insurance benefits, no copay, and $100 per hour"


Union negotiator goes to the press, hold a press conference and says "this company is making record profits, and they offer us this kind of crap. These union workers should be insulted by such an outrageous offer"

And the cycle goes on................
