"You may be confused. I'm not a lazy union GM worker doodling in the job bank center and getting paid 95% of a salary. I'm a self-made man, not a parasite. I learned to read and write using a pen - no union meathead I."
Ooooh, I guess I'm supposed to bow now?
Not a union meathead? Just a regular one? Look, it's that attitude that makes unions neccessary. Stereotype the entire union. All 125,000 GM workers are useless human beings. You don't care in the least that they're Americans. But you're a real patriot, right? There are probably union workers who coach your kid in baseball, or some other task you're way to important to do.
Most modern unions are bad, but not all unions are bad. Abusive employers are bad, but not all employers are abusive.
People only bow to other people when they have a dependent/entitlement mentality. Likewise, people only demand personal obeisance from others when they think they are entitled.
I don' need anyone to bow to me to prove my self-worth.

I see - the dismissive attitude that the nonlazy have toward the lazy makes it necessary for lazy people to band together in extortion syndicates. interesting theory.

I never made that claim.
You don't care in the least that they're Americans.
I didn't know that Americans owe other Americans a living. If someone is going to claim to me that they have a right to engage in extortion because they are an American and that I as an American am required to acquiesce in their scam, then I have to laugh. That truly is the refuge of a scoundrel.
But you're a real patriot, right?
Let's see, I love this country and its constitutional republic and I believe in life liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Yes, I'd say so.

I coach my daughter's soccer team. Oddly, I'm able to do that without a union card.
I'm not certain what tasks I'm too important to do. If there are any, I hope someone tells my wife about them, so I can get out of doing them.
Most modern unions are bad, but not all unions are bad.
While I agree that one union may be more reasonable and less violent than others, unions are still wrong in principle.
