Contributing sentiments towards policy:

67% : If the auto workers' union is not capable of organizing foreign companies' auto plants in hostile southern states, its power will die; and if it is not capable of organizing workers at rich and growing and staunchly anti-union companies like Tesla, its power will die.
62% : Economic inequality has shot up as the power of workers has fallen.
41% : After the attractive contracts won in the strikes brought a flood of interest from workers across the country, the union has decided to seize the moment.
37% : "If you had assumed that a man worth $245bn would be able to hire someone to explain to him the most rudimentary aspects of labor law, that assumption was apparently incorrect.
36% : Are they in for years-long fights against enormous multinational corporations backed by hostile state governments?
