Uniona are kinda a strange duck. Employers hate them, but technically shouldn’t care because if they were in fact not trying to fuck you constantly then unions wouldn’t get people very far.
On the other hand as a union worker myself, I’ve seen some of the laziest biggest pieces of shit not get fired because we’re union. So it isn’t sunshine and rainbows for either side.
Free riders are a feature, not a bug. High unions make everything better for almost everyone. The only ones who benefit from union-busting are the ownership class, because ultimately they only work in a competitive market when the ownership isn’t hoarding more than their share.
I’d rather some lazy fucker gets to live comfortably with a living wage like anyone else than some lazy rich fucktard gets to live super duper comfy while everyone else suffers. Theres always low performer for whatever reason (its rarely pure lazyness), a healthy society can carry them.

It doesnt need to be this way, but through corruption or other means this has happened.
Like the room in NYC with teachers that just sit in it all day because they cant be fired.
You’re focused on the wrong enemy.
