Valid and thoughtful perspective, Joe. I'm glad you mentioned how unions have aligned themselves with political parties when advantageous because it is important to understand that unions are a political animal too. I'm not so sure union leadership today is any different from the corporate or government elites if you compare their 'privilege' to the average worker they represent. I think that's why the story of Chris Smalls and Amazon was so powerful. He was the classic underdog. Would you ever consider a deep dive into how the leadership of unions has changed from its inception to now?
