Is this a serious question? This is like people in political debates saying "if you don't like it, go live in another country". It's not like jobs you'd want to do are everywhere.

So in a non-union environment would you be happy if the dunce who happens to be buddies with the boss gets the job over you even though you were more deserving and had been there longer?
This doesn't actually happen in companies that stick around for very long. If you don't promote the most qualified person, you're doing your own company a disservice. Of course, that's your call if it's your company. That's what you seem to be missing in a lot of this; if the dumb decision is made by the person who owns the shop, that's inherently different from some other entity forcing a dumb decision on them.

I really don't want to get sucked into this, because it's basically about as toxic a conversation as an Israel / Palestine debate... but there are definitely some interesting posts being made.
