What common enemy has united labor unions

Environmentalists, resource extractive industries; liberals, libertarians and conservatives alike? The corporate global dictatorship known as the World Trade Organization (WTO).
Not content with merely controlling all modern infrastructures and much of government, the WTO has set itself up to be the final arbitrator and controller of all things corporate, national sovereignty be damned. The inverted power pyramid can be righted with some dedicated citizen activism.
An idea whose time has come
But all corporations started somewhere. From the job function email list source of a corporation's beginnings can also be their end. Corporate status exists as a privilege granted by the state, subject to revocation or reformation whenever conduct requires it. In a letter to The Idaho Observer Editor (Feb. 2002), W. Stephan Hoop seeks to “push forward with an idea.”
Hoop proposes that corporations, “should be held to the same standards that we place on the individual. Namely, the 'Three Strikes and You Are Out' rule.”
He furthers this idea with the suggestion that, “if a corporation has three felony convictions, it should be sent to 'jail' for the rest of its life and forever be prevented from doing business. Its charter should be 'pulled' and its assets sold -- the same as if it had been bankrupted. If this is a corporation that is not chartered in the U.S., it should be 'barred' from doing business ever again within our borders.”
