Balancing out Employment Terms & Conditions

Question for the antiworkers… is it time for all 2M+ of us (and the rest of the worker bees) to collectively refuse to accept the always one-sided at-will terms of employment thrown at us? For giggles I wrote up a thought experiment document which I think balances out Employee/Employer terms. It's US-centric b/c that's where I'm based. It would be used during employment offer negotiations. I fully realize that given the state of the US that it's a pipe dream, but I'm curious what folks think of the idea of having something like an “Employee Employment Agreement” to throw back at HR when they lay all their T&C at you. Has anyone tried this? What was your experience? Is the whole employee/employer thing just too one sided and the labor pool too unorganized?
