Labor Unions - a good thing?
Definitely at one time but they seem to have outlived their usefulness.
Witness their effectiveness at preserving American jobs in the automotive industry.
As an illustrative aid, I put a black line at the year 2006 -- I know I keep harping on the Democratic Congress but they came into power in 2006 and in two years, they accomplished what it took six years previously -- a loss of 250,000 jobs. (Approval rating anyone?)
