Yeah, exactly what we need to remain competitive is a bunch of people with anti-corporate sentiment who can't be laid off or fired. That will turn out great.

You contradict yourself in your statement: "IMO unionizing is the only sensible strategy for any employee, that is easy to replace."

So what about that person who wants to replace that other worker? He doesn't get to have a job, I guess, because there are no openings. Unless you create more by decree. Eventually you're Greece.

As an entrepreneur (and I thought this site was full of them), these kind of laws and regulations hinder what products and services you can bring to market. Costs are too high. So what do I do? I'll either shelf the idea, or figure out how to build a machine that's cheaper than labour. Both result in more unemployment.
