   No need for unions...in this day and age? Humm...I could/would agree if it   
   weren't for people like the CEO's of banks who take home exorbitant pay   
   cheques...and bonuses. Then they continue to charge us for taking out our   
   own money from our own accounts. The reason they do that is because they can   
   (just like Dora) and they still want more. And more and more. No need for   
   unions? I think there just might be a need.
