How about you demand a raise or search for a better paying job?
Yeah! Let's all unionize!
What? Are you trying to get fired for no cause?
If we never unionize, it'll never get harder to fire us - it's almost a catch-22. Personally I've got a little bit of savings, so I can afford a little bit of risk for the possibility of more pay later. It's gotta start somewhere.
Small business are scraping by too. All the money in this booming economy is funneled up top. You demand a raise and they will just get the next hungry/broke sucker to take your spot.
