True. My last statement should have been split into two separate proposals:
1.) Better legal/financial support for cooperative business models (the laws on the books are prohibitive for capital intensive projects).
2.) Revising the NLRA to allow competition among multiple unions for representation. Right to work laws are too far on this issue but unions should not simply exist as a monopoly, they should have to have some incentive to earn their members.

If the argument is that the workforce at any given company should be represented by an arbitrary number of unions... I'd have to give that some thought, but it sounds like something that would occur in a post-scarcity science fiction world (a dystopia, or perhaps just an anti-union parody) wherein the future workforce consists almost entirely of lawyers. Maybe it wouldn't be that bad.
