Comment on People espousing that unions don't work should have a look at police unions.

People aren’t opposed to unions because they think unions aren’t powerful, they’re opposed to unions because they’re powerful.

It is the rich and powerful who are opposed, the public is just afraid and brainwashed out of their own power.

That’s not true though. I’ve talked to plenty of working class people who hate unions and hate dealing with union workers due to perceived laziness, bad work ethic, and the inability to fire bad workers.
Also plenty of unions are full of rich and powerful people: pilots unions, doctors unions, actors unions, sports athletes unions.
