Steve's barking Unions raising the white flag

Here in America our unions are are raising the white flag.
Now one reads about Walmart workers wanting to join a union, and Walmart just giving a big yawn.
One even hears that there was a one day strike at Walmart. Sounds like the United Autoworkers holding sit ins at the big three Automakers during the great depression.
Being a good union person from a union shop were one had to pay union dues I realized that in order to be a real good union person like most things in life you need enthusiasm. Why can't unions bring enthusiasm to a younger generation? Now I'm not just talking about young pups just getting into the work force, I'm talking about some middle aged far*s. Is because the unions have lost there way? Has the worker been brain washed, that its not good to have a contract that's the same as the person next to you. Why should a person worry about being brought up on charges, that person would never do anything wrong. Does the modern worker know any of those old Union songs or even know the history of the union movement in this country.
What's wrong with the leadership of our unions, are they more interested in keeping power and closed to new ideas? What new ideas can they come up with that would excite the workers in this country that they would want to belong to a union?

Today most unions in this country are but straw dogs being used by bullies to keep the worker down.
