They are in decline because not all unions are greedy. I am an elected union representative in the american state of Virginia and I try to convice my union that right now is not the time to be asking for wage increases so that we can stay competitive. This is where me and you differ VOID, as much as I enjoy our discussions. I have a very intimate knowledge of unionism.
