The up or down vote to unionize is not a problem, provided those who do not wish to join are not forced to do so (unfortunately, that's not the way it works). As many have said, this is a complicated issue (not as cut and dry as it was many years ago). Today it would seem that each situation must stand on it's own. In GENERAL, if I worked on the line at General Electric, I'd want to belong to a union. If I worked in a white collar job where the company must compete with many other employers for top notch employees, I wouldn't. The technical difficulty of the job (education & training) would seem to make the difference. The more educated/trained I am in a particular field, the more leverage I would have with my employer (or their competitors). It all hinges on how in demand my services are.
