Why shouldn't workers be able to form unions, to negotiate wages, benefits, safety requirements, hours and overall working conditions?

Wages are negotiated during the interview/hiring process like every other job on earth

Benefits are no guarantee for any job on earth

Safety, hours, and working conditions are covered by OSHA


Why are auto workers so special?

Auto workers(and union workers in general) are so special(as you say) because they negotiate as a group, which automatically gives them more negotiating power than a single worker who has relatively little negotiating power.

It’s fine if you are anti-union(I generally am, too) but I never understand why you guys can’t just accept that group-bargaining results in better wages/benefits…it’s statistically proven at this point in time.
