I don't disagree. I believe that workers absolutely must have the right to
organize and strike, else owners will ride roughshod over them. OTOH, the
perception exists that modern, large unions exploit workers and owners
alike, serving only the interests of the union bosses. I like your bumper
sticker quote - and I completely agree with it. :)
