I honestly have no idea what you're ranting about at this point. It's hard to have a discussion when your bias distorts everything I say.

>Work environment is expense. Profit is revenue - expense. Which statement do you disagree with?

I have no problem with the definition of "profit" you used, I already made this clear. All that matters is that we're on the same page.

>No one is suggesting that unions don't benefit their members. Your claim was that unions were combatting some evils

I clearly defined what "evil" I spoke of that unions are a balancing force against--"overbearing" management. Things like dangerous work environments, extreme work hours, lack of health insurance, etc. It is clear that unions are a balancing force to this "evil". If you disagree with this, then provide an argument. This is the only point I've made. I never claimed that this wasn't in the self-interest of its members. Your points are completely tangential to anything I've said.
