Pointing out singular words when making an argument is just petulant, clearly I was speaking in general terms and referring to the general difference between the US and Europe. That anyone would claim that it's impossible to find someone with a pro-union opinion in the US is as nonsensical as saying you couldn't find one with an anti-union opinion in Europe. We're talking about hundreds of millions of people. The main point of my comment, which I made very clear, was that specific examples of "bad unions" is not a helpful or constructive basis upon which to have an argument about the theoretical place of labour unions in a market, no more than you would base an argument about where to go for dinner in the nutritional value of a carrot.
