Uh NO. I posted that link to show that it happens, and that I wasn't pulling shit out of thin air.

I never said that ALL unions were "bad", but I do believe that some have overstepped their original purposes and have hindered non union folks or people not lucky enough to have a "in" find decent work. I'm a union employee myself, and while the union that represents me is good in the sense that it doesn't use bully tactics, i know that not all unions are like mine. Judging from your posts, you aren't from a union town because if you were you'd know that in some professions you have to be union in order to land a job that profession. I'm sure you've heard the term scab before right? Seriously though, try getting a decent contract or job as an electrician in Detroit without belonging to the IBEW...ain't gonna happen.
