Unfortunately, some unions have grown into the exact monsters that they originally were formed to protect from. I have heard more than a few stories of how labor unions actively bully non-union Americans just trying to earn a paycheck.1. There's no indication it's "typical". Please resist such inflammatory a comment without support.
2. There's indication that the article isn't even particularly true in this case.
3. Unions are like companies. There are good ones and bad ones.
4. Many people who are anti-union (as opposed to opposing specific unions or specific union actions), I think, fail to appreciate the atrocities from which unions arose. It feels like opposing police over-reach by wanting to get rid of all law enforcement.
Fine if some unions are just there to protect THEIR employees, but as soon as they step outside of that bubble, or impact other workers because of their choice, that union is completely worthless IMO.
