I used to see around 10-15 in my town.  By the middle of summer, they were all
gone.

That's probably the major reason why the unions still have at least some
support in the ranks.  The unions still have some people who try to do what is
supposed to be their job.

Ya, I can remember many union problems over the years.  Every time, the union
messes things up.  But we are back to the Media spinning things in favor of
their masters again.

The only time I ever saw the Media against the union was when the newspaper in
my area decided to de-unionize.  Even the Teamsters got involved (usually with
Antifa-like results).  In the end, everyone was better off (except, of course,
for the lazy and the union bosses) and the paper survived for many more years. 
But you never heard that in the media.
