I haven't been in one since I was in a company small enough to not qualify for unions anyways.

Unions are good though, as long as they serve the group trust / don't have ulterior motives.
Odd thing is, I am amazed that people aren't aware of the good that unions did early on that also benefit non-union people as well.

Vacation

Healthcare Coverage

Sick Leave

Weekends Off

Social Security (Keep in mind prior to the New Deal and Labor Unions, Americans had no retirement plans)

Minimum Wage

8 Hour Work Day

40 Hour Work Week

Unemployment Insurance

Pensions (Now gone and replaced by 401K and similar plans)

Collective Bargaining Rights for Employees

Public Education for Children

Please stop pretending labor unions did not play a role in helping American workers to attain Middle-Class status because they did.
