Most union
members lose money when they have to strike and they only do it when
they
think management isn't negotiating in good faith.

Nonsense! Are you suggesting the unions always do?

Many strikes are called because union demands are totally unreasonable,
and
resisted by management.

They often represent people demanding pay that is far greater than it's
worth in value by performance, especially when accompanied by a "slow
down"
mentality.

I worked, briefly, in a union shop. You need not waste your breath
telling
me I'm wrong.

Thanks so much for the anecdotal data. Your personal experience is all we
need to hear about to make a judgment about unions in general. While your
personal observations may have been one way the truth is what I said is the
right on. Unions don't strike often and not for frivilous reasons. Because
it usually costs more than it gains for them. You may not know that but
that's the fact. That is usually the case with anecdotes.
