Unions a big part of the problem

The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) is floating a proposal that would alter the way workplace elections are currently held. The board, made up of three Democrats and one Republican, has drafted rules that would speed up the election process and require employers to hand over information on its employees - like email addresses and phone numbers to prospective unions.
I have never been a big fan of unions as they exist today. They play at acting like they are working for the individual worker, when in actuality, they are in it for the money and power themselves. The "Mob" was heavily involved with many of them during the Great Depression and are probably heavily involved now, just in a quieter manner. They use scare tactics to force workers to join and eventually ruin businesses. They basically take control of a business away from the owners. Unions are not helping the economy today, they are an impediment to its recovery.
