How many times did factory workers burn to death because the owners were too worried about theft to provide fire escapes before our country passed safety laws? Would we have those laws if not for the Unions? How often are these same tragedies repeated in developing countries? I'm not necessarily looking for a bunch of statistics; it's more of a rhetorical question to get us all to think.
