Literally true. I watched Eastern Airlines go out of business because the labor unions would not compromise. I hope lots of union workers lost their homes after they lost their jobs, because the whole damned lot deserved it.

I watched the unionized work force of the second-oldest grocery chain in Michigan vote themselves out of a job, rather than take a modest pay cut in exchange for employee ownership!

Not sure if any of those folks ever worked again for more than minimum wage. They had the logical process an amoeba. "No way! You're not takin' anything away from US!"

I know the chain you are talking about. I was dating a checker that was making about 30 cents more per hour than I was and I was at top police officer pay, which wasn’t too bad.
After this vote, they lost it all. Same job became just one pay grade up from minimum wage. By the way, this was before bar code scanners so the check out person had to be fast and accurate.
