Unions and unions

See what I did there? Capital Union and small union. The capital Union sucks, those are big businesses that thrive on the paychecks of some of the hardest working people (and at times, lowest paid). The smaller union is the group of employees who band together to try to make work a better experience for all. When the small union is swallowed by a Union, things inevitably go bad. The union is proud of the work, the Union needs all workers (who pay dues) and cares little for quality. The union  protects those who come to work every day, the Union protects those who abuse the system.
I am interested in starting a union, one away from the Union to which I belong, but have been thwarted every step of the way. It amazes me that workers do not mind being lumped in with lazy bums, but they do...I guess because so many are related to the bums...
