A guy I know from adjunct unionization went on to work for a major national union, and when I saw him the other weekend, he was putting feelers out into finding another job.
He said what with the upcoming SCOTUS right-to-work rulings and the declining percentage of Americans in unions, it just didn't make all that much sense to try and stay in it long-term.
Somehow I get the sense that we're at a low point, though, and things are about to explode in a major way.
People just don't have all that much to lose any more.
For example, just talk to any college kid, and so many of them just see a long horizon of debt and precarious low-paid jobs ahead of them.
To me, at least, they seem like prime unionizing material.
