I'm in a huge union town, and from what I hear... (I'm white collar) they do a lot of good. All the unions do a lot of charity work. But as for the bad, the UAW that is at Jeep, have made it so when the workers are laid off, they still get 95% of their pay, no matter how long they are off. There are many cases were an employee is caught with drugs at work, he/she is slapped on the wrist, told to attend a drug rehab paid for by Jeep, then brought back to work after rehab.
That is an extreme circumstance, but true. Unions were good in the US back in the day, but with all the legislature, they really aren't needed. Without the unions, this legislature would not have happened.
