They've somehow convinced themselves that they can do a better job negotiating for their benefits on their own than with a bargaining unit representing all labor.

But you see, I'm an exceptional employee and I don't want seniority to be a bigger deal in my salary than my performance.
Imagine if somebody like Lebron James, Patrick Mahomas, or Tom Cruise was in a union!!
Ask 10 people in the street about their opinion of unions, and 8 of them will regurgitate some vague concern about union leadership corruption, protection of “lazy workers” or exorbitant dues, rather than cite one of the many hard-won historical victories against exploitation or unsafe working conditions over the years. That’s no accident.
