Volkswagen workers in Chattanooga, Tennessee have voted to reject the United Auto Workers' bid to unionize the plant. While it may sound like a somewhat local event, it's difficult to overstate the magnitude of what it means for union politics in the United States. Should you care to follow the story in coming days, you can expect to see commentators comparing it to Napoleon at Waterloo, and with good reason. Some will blame the meddling of Republican politicians, and perhaps with justification, but any way you analyze this outcome it's a complete disaster for unions in the USA.
The autopsy will be conducted in the press in coming days. The reasons for my hyperbole will made fully apparent by people with better writing skills than I possess. I'm just beside myself. I need a drink.
