Having spent my life in a state where unions are all but outlawed, I can say with absolute certainity that everyone, everyone, needs to be in a union (your country, obviously, no longer represents your interests). However, this is article is convincing in its assertion that unions, like any other organization, can become powwer mad. The "nose under the tent" argument is presented and largely dismissed but in doing so the author misses a central point: the "nose" wouldn't be an issue if the average worker could trust any of the bosses to act like human beings, or missing that, could rely on the government to step in and set things right.
