When unions are organized, they are interested in improving the workers' positions. Over time, though, they just become one more entity in the workplace, and advocate for their own power and money over all else. It is a corrosive influence that starts out ok, but degrades to a very low common denominator, and puts a company on the ropes. There is no better example of this than detroit.
