NOTHING you say begins to address my point: nobody has a right to form a union on my private property period.

Of course, they “rate some consideration”: a market wage and anything else agreed to in a conversation free of government coercion, and it is only government coercion that allows unions to exist.

I don’t know if unions MUST be adversarial, I only know that they ALWAYS are, and they don’t care about my business; they think I’m rich and I’m stealing from them, and they want to use government force to seize my property. THAT is the UNDENIABLE LONG HISTORY of unions.

Then you sound like someone I wouldn't work for at gunpoint. And it's likely that you deserve the people who would.

ANYBODY has a right to form a union on your private property. The right to free association doesn't stop at your fence.

I agree that you should also have the right to fire anyone who tries to form a union in your shop. And those employees have a right to picket you as a tyrant and a bully.

Your paranoia about government and unions has some basis in fact, but is so over-the-top as to be pathological.
