I've seen unions rejected time after time in places I've worked. I don't understand it as unions are usually the only protection workers get and offer their only real hope at fair wage increases.
As far as unions protecting dead weight - I haven't seen corporations be any better at shedding dead weight. The corporations themselves often protect the workers that offer least real benefit to the company, while shedding workers who may be more outspoken but get the real work done. Corporations typically can't stand information contrary to their own propaganda and get rid of the people who spread truth and information that could greatly benefit the long term interests of the company as well as all its' people - not just administration.
I'm not saying unions are great - anymore, they often seem to be in bed with the corporate administrators, and work to the detriment of the workers they represent. -- but what else is there? Corporations are basically legally defined and required to be psychopathic (work in the interests of shareholders rather then customers or workers or the general good) - and they are good at acting in a psychopathic manner towards workers in particular.
Amazon only have 27 workers?
Never did understand, why changing from a corporate master telling you what to do, to a union master, who takes a portion of your wages, to tell you what to do, makes any difference?
