LH--

Sorry, you're still off-base. We are not powerless even as individuals precisely since we can band together. Environmental groups are doing precisely that--and the WSJ editorials are forever inveighing against the terrible power of "Big Green". (If you can believe that)

Also what do you suppose the origin of unions was?--and proof that they are still needed.

To say we are powerless--in any capacity-- is an absurd self-defeating attitude.
