What do you think about unions?  Do you think they do more good or bad.  Are they good for the workers?

I am for them since they are for the worker to get better pay and benefits.  I think they are good.  They don't allow companies to treat workers as bad as they like to, financially and with benefits.

A little overly broad and generic, don't you think? Got anything more specific in mind?

I meant, as strong as they used to be in the 1970s and 80s, not the 1870s and 80s.
