While we should be doing more to protect and support unionization, when results are different based on where you are, those people need to take some responsibility. I know some of the conservative states have it tough, but they operate under the same federal laws that Michigan does for autoworkers.

The laws are the same, the context is different. It's one thing to unionize of you live in state with job options. It's another when the one factory employs the entire town.

That isn't to say they aren't somewhat responsible. Just that we can't expect the same performance given that disability.
