[QUOTE="Serf, post: 1278859, member: 50254"] Unemployment is high. A strength of a union is that members make up the workforce of a business. If the business cannot replace those workers then the union has a significant tool to bring the company to their knees. If unemployment is high there is a chance that those workers could be more easily replaced, thus weakening the primary advantage the union possesses. When business is booming you are not going to get much support to try to break a union. No one is going to want to pick a fight with the workers. But if you are faced with poor revenues or especially bankruptcy the argument against the union gains momentum. And actually this is not a democracy. The US is actually a Republic. It is governed by rule of law. The elected is supposed to be bound by oath to the written governing limits (constitution) yet vote "together" and create laws to address concerns of the represented in a democratic way. Present day we have the Chairman Obama. Democracy as an individual and any group of individuals composing a minority, have no protection against the unlimited power of the majority. It is a case of Majority-over-Man. Google Greek Democracy if you need pointers. [/QUOTE]
