I'm not suggesting we should prop them up, I'm simply arguing we shouldn't do things to cripple them to the point where the say, "Fuck this we're moving."
Personally, I am against unions, but we can't stop people from joining together to demand higher wages when the time is necessary. If people want to be arrogant asses and demand higher wages, they will have to pay the price of not having a job.
