You fail to point to the fact that many, many local unions are run by people who are corrupt as fuck, looking for as much money and power as they can get (and who don’t give a shit if the workers gain or lose), and no one wants to be associated with them

Good god. Trump wants to bring back the 1950s and so does Hamilton Nolan. HamNo, I’m going to tell you what I told Trump: the 1950s are not coming back. The economy is globalized, the jobs aren’t inherit to any geographical locations of political system. The unions aren’t going to come back.
