	I agree with your point that coercion is the enemy, not necessarily the
corporations or the unions.  But if you don't believe that corporations can and
have used police and/or threat to life or limb, then you don't have all the
facts yet.

I don't have all the facts (who does? :-), but I am aware that corporations
have used rather nasty tactics. I think that large unions are currently
more of a threat than corporate monopolies. This is because the unions are
supported by law, and the monopolies are outlawed. As someone else pointed
out, you should either allow both, or outlaw both.
