aaah, wes??? based on course work, observation, and reading, it seems to me
that unions arise when management provides an environment that the workers
see as exploitive or unfair - when those doing the work are happy and feel
they are treated fairly, there is generally no unionization. Now, once
started, the process, being built on mutual antagonism and mistrust is very
difficult to reverse.

Henry Ford made great strides in compensating his workmen. What did that get him? Yup, a
union.
