If anyone doubts the value of unions protecting workers rights, they should try to watch the CBC's Fifth Estate documentary on 'Made in Bangladesh'
This talks about the working conditions leading up to the collapse of a factory killing over a thousand people... most making twenty five cents an hour producing cheap fashion clothing for North American market.

What does this have to do with unions today, particularly in North
America?

A lot. If it weren't for unions, kids would be still working in unsafe
conditions for slave wages. Have you not read historical accounts of the
conditions that people had to work in in the factories of the northeast?

That was before OSHA, labor laws and TV lawyers.

Kids should receive guidance from their parents.
