If you’re looking at the issues and policies that confront labor from the perspective of a public sector decision-maker who has pledged to do her best to promote our general welfare and protect us from the bad guys using best practices, the questions become, what’s the best way for our government to manage the relationship between labor and capital? Which country is already doing it better than the rest, (i.e., the country which is the role model for other democracies to manage the relationship)? How can America transition to becoming a role model for the rest of the world? Of course, today’s corporate citizenship will likely control any regulatory, legislative, and judicial decisions to dump all over things, so great unions (that do all those things Thom listed) are an essential source of countervailing power against the morbidly rich. We need a bunch more progressives in decision-making positions to fight back, because, as John Mack said of his peers on Wall Street, “Regulators have to be much more involved. We cannot control ourselves.” No shit.
