U.S. Labor Unions

What do you gentlemen think of labor unions in the U.S.?
What, in your eyes, are the costs and/or benefits of having them?

Or you know we could go back to a time
A time with child labor, no safety regulations, run on the banks every five years, barely functioning economic stability, panics, a more deeply religious nation, huge income inequalities (even more so in proportion to today), etc. No thanks. I see that you didn't get the memo a century ago that we're no longer primarily an agrarian nation.
