Unions causing wide spread job loss?

What is going on with these Unions that seem to be obliv­i­ous to what is tak­ing place in Amer­i­ca?

Do they not under­stand that many econ­o­mists have fore­cast the most destruc­tive year in 2013 that any­one has ever seen? 

Economically we are facing Armageddon.

If you even have a job you should be grate­ful but appar­ent­ly Unions are priv­i­leged, they do not feel that they are sub­ject to the same rules of physics that every­one else is.

Like Grav­i­ty for instance?

You know what goes up must come down and they have had the gravy going for many many years, yet now when it gets a lit­tle rough they want to head for the door?

What hap­pened to work­ing togeth­er for a com­mon goal oh, you know like actu­al­ly work­ing toward the goal of pro­vid­ing a qual­i­ty prod­uct, I just have a hard time under­stand­ing this men­tal­i­ty that says hey, Im spe­cial and I deserve high­er pay just because I pay dues, I deserve spe­cial con­sid­er­a­tion above every­one else in the labor mar­ket just because Im bet­ter than any­one else out there.
