  Because its ultimately cheaper to suppress unions than it is to pay the workers the fair salary.

    I'm generally pro-union and certainly fair wage, but it's important to keep in mind that unions will grow into their own power centers and have leadership with its own internal goals which are not aligned with either their working members nor the employers.

        Always. Power begets power. <i>Everything</i> needs to be kept in check.<p>The only question is where the line is.

  Considering the annual revenue of Fortune 500 companies is near 20 Trillion, that is a much smaller amount than expected.
