Corporations, startups, small/medium sized businesses - and yes even average people want as few people doing as much work as possible. Would you want 3 plumbers to show up to your house to fix a leaking toilet? I do understand the history behind the rise of unions. And I generally think that unions have been a positive force in the world (and some current industries could probably benefit from unionization), however plenty of unions to this day give unions a bad name. Unions should protect workers against egregious corporate retaliation. They shouldn't be protecting workers jobs at the expense of a companies fiscal survival.

Depends. I have 11 bathrooms in my house, so I might need 3 to get the job done properly. Also, I bet one of those plumbers could fix the leak in my pool.
