I don't get to pick unions. I get to pick my community support structures. Who I marry, which church,friend group,local community group I join? Those are all voluntary. Unions are not voluntary so they can't really be a community support group in the sense I mean.

Of course you do, you can choose to not take a job with an attached union you don't like. As you said, there are plenty of opportunities out there!

  You are correct! But we are discussing why I personally would vote against one at an employer. It would take an otherwise reasonable and enjoyable employer and turn them into a place I no longer want to work.

>I don't get to pick unions. >Unions are not voluntary Not all of my colleagues are in a union, and some of those that are are in a different union to me (albeit a minority of them). It works.

  It doesn't work like that in USA, union laws are different in different countries.

    Some major cities have multiple overlapping electricians unions. I've been on job sites where different unions are working on top of each-other.
