The whole American system doesn't make any sense to me. I don't understand why workers should be forced to join a union if they don't want to and I don't understand why workers should be prevented from joining a union if they want to. Guess that's an issue where Old Europe is more free-market oriented than 'Murica.

What incentive do I have to join a union if I'm not obligated to do so?

European countries don't force workers into unions, yet their unionization rates are generally much higher than in the US (France being the exception, sadly).

One solution (used in Scandinavia, IIRC) is to tie various labor benefits to union membership.
