Unions were a good thing in the 30's and 40's. Back then I probably would
have been a Union leader of some sort. Then they over did things and some
exploited more than the company. Where I worked in the 70's, we paid our
workers more than the contract called for in order to retain and recruit
better people, but the poor guy had to pay dues and received nothing in
return. Yes, that union was BAD, as were many others.
