Unions = Gov't regulated labor control which forces companies to not be in control of their employees. As long as Unions are around and in power like they are today then our production capacity will never increase

1. Unions "in power"? With less than 7% of the private-sector workforce in unions, they're hardly "in power"
2. How much YOU think an assembly worker should be paid is irrelevant-- it's only what the parties bargaining the contract think that's relevant. Unless you're some kinda dirty socialist who thinks the nation as a whole should have a say. >
3. Well, if we wanna get rid of unions or put them under the thumb of the government and/or corporations to reduce their collective bargaining power or otherwise supress them, there are plenty of precedents-- Nazi Germany, Fascist Italy, PRC, USSR, modern-day Mexico or Colombia. Take yer pick.
