Sure a lot of people wish they had a union job. You'd be a fool to turn down (a lot) more money for the same work, a guaranteed job, and protection from your screwups.
Pro-union guys operate under the assumption that companies are just rolling in money behind closed doors, and can afford to pay any ransom that the union demands. This ain't the 1950's.
