The problem people have with the labor movement is that it's gotten too totalitarian- using the government to tell businesses and workers exactly the kinds of contracts they're allowed to make. Often, this is to the detriment of the workers as well as the businesses, such as when minimum wage laws lead to the firing of low-wage workers that cannot be afforded at minimum wage.
As for the rest, well...making them required by law and not giving a damn whether the business can afford them or not has hurt the employee, not helped him. It amuses me that "the labor movement" calls for such things by law, then are surprised when businesses go out of business, start laying off workers, or head for greener pastures.
Businesses today have made more money then has been created before in the whole of human history, if they can buy car elevators and private jets, then they damn well pay the people who made that money for them in the first place a living wage.
