But Jimmy Hoffa is long gone.

If you look at the broader spectrum and compare US workers rights with most of the EU, Europes fight was worth it and these have been gained by literally dying for the cause before unions appeared. It has gone overboard in places like Italy, but the workers right certainly did not and would have never come from the employers.

The world is not the same everywhere.

EU worker compensation continues to diverge from the US, and not in a good way. Because unions don't create wealth, they simply re-distribute it at great cost for society.

so they have more rights, but earn substantially less than what workers can earn in the USA for the same job.

I for one am not sure I would make that trade.

It is more than just gross pay, though.

Health insurance, paid holidays, sick days paid, the unemployment benefits are vastly superior.

This is a comprehensive and unbiased overview, I think
