Ultimately, I think where a given union falls on the spectrum depends entirely on the union/industry. Some are much better or worse than others. Mostly where I fall on the issue, I have seen a lot of unions that are basically just a way for one or two people to make a shit ton of money while everyone in the actual union just gets shit (teachers unions, for example). They were useful 100 or so years ago when laws weren't in place to protect workers, but now more often then not they are just extortion scams with the workers as the victims. --- I am a senior software engineer.
