You make a good point but starting a trade union here would be useless.....like shooting yourself in the foot. There are many impoverished countries that would be willing to export their people here or to import our corporation's work there. Capitalism will always follow the path of least resistence and most profit. All this would do is push corporations to go to Congress stating that there is a shortage of IT workers and that they need more H1B visas and look for tax loopholes to outsource jobs overseas.

Here's a good example:
