I take that back - here was a feel-good story from 2005:

As Union Nears Win, Wal-Mart Closes Store

[balticseaviking]

speaking of which, the Kaiser alunimun plant in Millwood, Washington, near Spokane, Washington, went on strike in99 or 2000 I don’t remember exactly, but they were on strike for 2 years. The workers went bankrupt. lost their houses and some were divorced. Replacement workers came in, the police had to guard them on the way into the plant. Then the upshot of the whole thing Kaiser closed the plant and moved out. So the community lost 1,00 jobs. Washington was at one time a right to work state, but the liberal pols, given enough union money changed that. So go ahead UAW strike, I hope you strike out on three fast balls.

"Many people cried, including myself," Tremblay said. "I'm a mother of two children and I'm separated from my husband. It's very difficult."

Tremblay said she abstained from the unionization vote. She said she was upset her noncommittal stance won't save her job.

Voting no to unionization might have saved her job. Failure to take a stand got her jack sh!t.
