> Taking your word for it regarding HN not liking unions

Don't. HN is far from a monolith on this issue.

To the degree I've seen even a semblance of consensus, it's in animosity towards public-sector unions and gentle support for blue-collar private-sector unions. Where it turns to total anarchy is when we debate unionizing tech workers. (They tend to be fun reads.)

haha, true. Lots of straw men creep into that discussion.

> I can't live off $500,000/yr, what if I get laid off? We need to unionize to protect our jobs and make sure our salary keeps up with inflation!

Just wait until we talk about VP's unionizing.

Even amongst public sector, cop/firefighter/judge/politician unions are a different animal than the other government worker unions.
