What do you propose should be done when unions themselves acquire enough power and influence to begin to act in a tyrannical manner?
We've seen this happen with public sector unions in various places, for example.
Despite the employees having quite safe and comfortable working conditions, despite them being quite well compensated, and despite them even being able to have some input (via voting) over who their bosses are, it's not uncommon for these sorts of unions to impose varying degrees of disruption just to try to get even more money or benefits out of already over-taxed societies.
These sorts of unions and their members never seem to care much about the negative effects that public transit, public education, and other artificial work disruptions/shutdowns may have on society at large.
