All of this in the name of protecting the worker from the mean business owner.
Unions have very little to do with anything they needed for in the beginning.
Do you really think that they are a bunch of well meaning people only in it for the poor little (HIGHLY PAID) worker?
I don't, I think they are closer to organized crime.

I mostly agree with your posts, but this one is one long cliche ridden opinion, in my opinion, in your depiction of unions.
I know what you're talking about with the "new jobs" part of your post, but the person you should be mad at is the government officials (read Obama) who are strong arming Boeing at the Union's behest. He's the one selling you out.
The Union's are merely looking out for their workers, but it's the governments job to resist temptation and say "no".
It's the same thing with Wall St.; Big Business is naturally going to be trying to get an advantage for their business, but it is the government's job to resist temptation and say "no".
