There are several things:
* The corruption in the unions gets a lot of press, now and historically.
* There are lots of stories where union workers can't be fired so they just sleep at their desk.
* We don't have good worker protections. There is no political appetite for it and also no strong public sentiment for it. This sounds counter intuitive but there is this attitude that people get what they deserve. "They could just get a different job", "No one is forcing them to work there". Even look at our vacation policies compare to Europe. There is a mentality that hard work (even being exploited) is a goal to strive for.
