No, I totally realize that my socialist tendencies make me incredibly biased towards unions.
However, I think that for the reasons I outlined, it is a bit silly to blame the unions.

And since the original comment was aimed at me, I'm not anti-union. I'm anti-corruption.

And, to be fair, I didn't read your comment as saying "it's the fault of the unions." I read it as, "A bunch of people are to blame for this, including the union heads."

Ignorant post. You started off complaining about high wages and now you are against corruption. Are high wages illegal?

I should have said "how much the union workers cost" which is the issue I'm getting at. However, they do make an incredible salary for their skill level.
