- one time in this countries history there was a need for unions but now days with all the federal and State workers laws and rights unions arent needed and they have priced them selves out of the market
Unions have become that which they were formed to protect workers against: Organizations that exploit workers for money.
They alqays had that happenng, to an extent. Because, as it turns out...brace for this...they are run by human beings. And so they have to deal with moral hazard, just like every other organization. Yet still,unions do benefit and protect their members.
