Like a lot of entities, "Unions" squandered their credibility to the point of no return, long ago. Anyone listening to a union complaint and "alarm" about safety would rationally be skeptical that it wasn't just a scam for more red tape, overpaid union make work jobs, IOW, yet another union shakedown scheme.
Gretz, what you say is correct. However, that isn't a universal truth, and we should be alert to the idea that maybe the unions are right sometimes, and it is management/owners who we should be questioning more closely.

I say that as someone who has both belonged to a private union, and worked in positions where I had to direct a union work force.
