Labor demand is a funny thing. It's clear that there is want, need, and opportunity for services, and yet so few employers, all in pursuit of goals so tightly constrained as to exclude the majority of wanted, needed services. Why, after all, would I pay workers to improve the lot of the poor? And how, after all, can the poor pay workers at all? And so we see all talent funneled into a few employers' projects; often wholly detrimental ones, such as peddling fructose, and nearly always tangential to the talent's personal goals, priorities, and passions. > Given a massive oversupply of replacement workers ready to go at a moment's notice, unionization seems unlikely to change anything. Perhaps, then, a union of the unemployed.
