And that is a good thing.

The unions largely just priced themselves out of the market for any
job that could be exported. That is why the only unions that survive
nationally are government unions.

uh no. if that were the case then the germans would be in worse shape

of unionization is FAR greater than ours.

more right wing bull****

Neither their unions, government nor corporations like GM and Citi are
