I choose to remove limitations on myself and have made a very comfortable living as a result. I despise the fact my wife is forced to be unionized. But that's her choice.

You simplify the world greatly as in thinking it works the same for everybody.
I have worked in a dangerous factory and only unions stop the deaths and loss of
limbs in that shit.
You haven't been there so you don't know. For you it's all about limits on income and
mandatory raises. It's a childish republican spin on what unions are.
You should read the book titled "The Jungle".
It's has lots of facts about the US labor market before unions!
Short cut to reading the book :
