Unions are victims of their own success. Virtually everything they campaigned for, such as the 40 hour work week, overtime pay, safety regulations, etc, have been put into law. Unfortunately, they act like it's still 1934. That's why they are increasingly being seen as useless, behind the times, and an arm of the DNC. They need to adapt and deal with the world the way it is today. Focus on making the Union Label mean superior quality and not just higher costs, for example, would go a long way.
Unions are seen that way now because of right wing propaganda and that propaganda is in place to increace corporate profits and has worked suberbly because of ignorance. Convince a blue collar worker that unions are bad.....wow. "Right to work state" = place where you get payed and treated like shit.
