Let's try to stick to one topic at a time.

Unions have outlived their usefulness. Everyone knows this. Union membership in the private sector has dropped every year for the past three decades, to only 7.9% in 2004. The reason for this is that most US companies are responsible and generous employers, including Wal-Mart. With the help of unions in the mid 20th century, businesses have come to understand the benefits of treating employees fairly. Now it is time for the unions to fold up and become a relic of the past.

Of course, all social improvement programs seek to perpetuate themselves, even when the job is done. The unions' last vestige of opportunity lies in public sector employees, where politicians, rather than CEOs, control the purse strings. Naturally, taxpayers are getting monumentally ripped off by these unions, so let's not hear any more of those phony budget protests from the union supporters on the left.
