I can't think of much more than making the Elitists pay to prop up a media
source that is only viewed by their brainwashed masses.

Already the legacy media has almost no power to change people's minds anymore.
They are getting sued for defamation and slander - and losing.  There was a
time when The View, for example, had to apologize on air for something false
that they said.

Short of something totalatarian, I can't think of much more we can do.

Their teeth have been pulled.  Since Congress created it, only Congress can get
rid of it.  And Congress has bigger fish to fry right now.

 AT> Is there any legitimate reason for unions (of any sort) to still exist?

No.  There was never a legitimate reason for unions to exist past getting
workplace safety standards passed.

Today they are all corrupt, power hungry groups that use workers to have power.

 AT> We have laws. If employers don't follow them, they get fined and/or

It should be.  Don't like where you are working?  Move to another employer.

That never works with unions because in the free market, they are all worth
less than what they blackmailed out of the companies they currently work for.

I don't know on that one.  I know that the Feds have stepped in several times.

But unions have priced themselves out of the market and were a dying group
anyway.  Except for public sector unions, which shouldn't exist anyway.

It took time for the Elitists to break everything.  It will take time to fix it
too.
