I wonder how many of the union strikers remember that at one time Wal-Mart’s had a butcher shop? If my memory is correct, the butcher's union was talking about a strike for more wages/better working conditions/etc. Instead of giving in Wal-Mart closed the in-house butcher shops and went with prepackaged meats from a centralized facility. Wonder how many good union jobs that cost?

Unions spent tens of millions filing suits, and appealing until they found the right liberal judge. Unions won the case, patted their own backs in interviews with everyone. The next morning, Wal Mart closed all the meat sections in that state. They all lost their jobs. It was great.
