Hoot, the Greedy and Corrrupt CEO's and boards of a lot of these banks, firms and corps have done 100000000 times more damage to this economy than any union. Im not saying there is not some issues to take with some of these unions. Unions are obviously necessary but the political machine they have become is going to far.

A good local example is KDMC, look what has happened there with the greed and poor decisions coming from the top.

From someone who once worked union for a long time, I can honestly say I absolutely detest of what the union of "today" stands for, but there is also some truth to what you are saying as well Beetle. If I had more time I would go into more detail, but this morning I dont. There is no need for a union today "in most respects" as the government now has the ability to keep the sweatshops in check and the basic human safety concerns of what the John L. Lewis's once campaigned for. Truth is the greedy common stock holder is just as guilty as any one. Everything in this country is based on short term gain and profits from all associated. It is doubtful that the greedy nature of mankind, being what it is will allow for a balance for all to co-exist in reasonable terms.
