2. Not in the least.
I know health insurance sucks, such as it is right now, but it HAS done one good thing for ME lately. Due to my insurance companies collective bargaining capability, they are able to set contract prices for services with their providers, and ensure that the providers to not overcharge me (or let us say ridiculously overcharge me, they're still overcharging me).

Collective bargaining is a good thing. My point here is that it serves far more people in these United States than recognize it. I think pointing this out to anti-union folks might be effective.
