100% agree. A well-run Union is the greatest asset you can have on your side. Unfortunately they can become bloated and feel like the deserve more than they do - see the 2010 Sudbury USW strike, where they were trying to keep some strikers who assaulted other workers from being charged and fired. Vale almost broke the union (it has a 2 year strike length maximum, i think) because of stupid shit like that.
