Unions coming back

I regard the UAW unionization victory at VW in Tennessee (probably soon to be followed by a similar victory at Mercedes in Alabama)... as a watershed. Tesla, Amazon, Starbucks, tech companies like Google, Microsoft, Meta, Apple ... you're next. 

As a longtime white collar (thus nonunion) employee, I have always known that the only reason we even had benefits, fair work rules, reasonable hours (such as weekends off), overtime, etc. is because of the blood, sweat and tears of union organizers and workers in the past.
