If your hypothetical person doesn't want union representation, then that person shouldn't apply for a union job. I haven't heard of many people who don't want to belong to the unions actually refusing the benefits the unions negotiate with the business, or quitting because of them.

I don't know about that. Hasn't seemed to hurt states with local and state sales taxes, like Washington. Also internet sales would be charged sales tax too -- no more tax-free Amazon purchases. That's a fight California and a lot of other states won not too long ago to combat the very issue you mention.

My money is on Prukop to start w/maybe the kid making it a horse race when he gets his chances. Jonsen has a steep road getting up to game speed whereas Prukop has a far smaller adjustment. Both appear to have wheels...

it's as much control and the desire to inflict power on someone else as it is a sexual thing. I think it's weird the way the twisted power/control thing is acted out as a sexual attack so often. same thing behind mass shooters and serial killers too, I think.
