This is the point, the SEIU has grown not by organizing workers but through merging with other unions. You haven't contradicted anything I've said, SEIU Local 1199 stretches across several states. And the AFSCME is of course organizing government jobs, not as much of a challenge. Of course, AFSCME probably has some non-government diner somewhere organized so why don't you inform me of that?
