    They also have the option of not treating them like shit. Happy workers don’t usually want to unionize.

      I’m a fairly happy employee and I want to unionize.

      I remember working through the Great Recession and I never want to take a 7 year pay cut again.

        Happy wasn’t the best word. Well taken care of employees who know their employers care don’t typically feel the need to unionize. In other words, it’s not going to be high on their priority list, nor is the risk of retaliation going to be worth it.
