Well yeah, as long as all the power lies in corporate with the government backing them, these are worries. Forcing a contract in workers who rejected it will strengthen the worries your friends are feeling.

I agree with this entirely. The only time unions are a draw back is when governments screw them over and let corporations or local governments screw people. A great example of this is public ed. without the right to go on strike it hampers the ability to negotiate!
