In the eyes of the working class, the Workers' Union is their greatest pillar.
In fact, it does seem to be true. With the help of the Workers' Union, capitalists and politicians have had to draft many policy bills regarding their welfare benefits, protecting their rights and ensuring some security in their lives.
The image of the Workers' Union on paper is that of a worker smiling heroically towards the sun.
But in reality, the Workers' Union, to some extent, is both the protector of workers and the partner of capitalists. The widely circulated cases where they stand on the workers' side and achieve victory are actually against those small local companies without much reputation.
Try tackling large corporations?
Just the lengthy litigation process and costs can make the Workers' Union voluntarily compromise and choose to give up, so at such times, they will switch roles, taking benefits from the corporate side in the name of helping the workers to seal the deal.
