>And how is that determined? Via open ballot as well?

Yeah, but I think in real-time.

>There's just way too much potential for abuse.

There's way more abuse now going the other way, in ways that are unfair to labor, which makes up the bulk of people. If there's going to be abuse (which I don't think there would be much of), I'd rather it go to benefit those at the bottom than those at the top.

>The unions claim they need the power to combat the anti-union efforts of the corporations

They're right.

>but the reality is that they're just fulfilling their image of thugs and corrupt officials.

An image so well-crafted over the last century and a half by corporations.
