with "regulatory capture" of everything from schools to TV stations, the word not only doesn't get out, the opposite view (that unions are just robbers taking your money) has been spread around for many years. Propaganda works, folks. It seems that only the school of hard knocks works on most people.

Unluckily, the school of hard knocks has a REAL knockout blow coming to most people -- not only will they not be able to unionize, the climate/oil/water/food problems are going to make most people either dead or virtual slaves to whatever hierarchical apparatus springs up to 'manage' the plebes.
