Unions are not better. This isn't 1888 any more. They charge the employees a fee every paycheck, but when you need them, they'll do what's in their best interest not yours. As a teen, I was forced to quit a job (with my union rep beside me) for a made up reason. "Better to quit than to be fired" was his advice. Obviously my "quitting" was part of some bigger plan to save a job of his friend or some other concession the boss made to him. Unions protect the employees as a whole but not the individuals. They have their own interests that are not always aligned with the employees either.
