It's a good thing. We don't want illegitimate, incompetent unions.

These events haven't really changed my opinions of unions, just confirmed my opinions of the worst kind of union people. The sort who act more like mobsters than people legitimately concerned about the well-being of staff.

You mean the leftist student politicians who have made a career out of being a union official? Simon Oosterman is my favourite example.
