I like the idea of unions, but I am not a fan of the AFL-CIO at all. Change to Win are more palatable, simply because they are into actual organizing, as opposed to just being all but a part of the Democratic party as the AFL-CIO is.
When I worked for the Government in Missouri, I was union, and it always incredibly frustrating to see how union dues would wind up being spent on political campaigns, and often times on campaigns that ran directly contrary to my interests.
