Unionizing, used to be, to get a share of the PROFITS. Not to drive a business into the ground. Also to ensure those who devote their lives to helping to build a business isn't just tossed aside for a cheaper replacement at any moment. Union demands were supposed to be REASONABLE contractual bargaining for workers. Based, again, on company PROFITS. It was a shared goal. The corruption of unions gave them a bad name.

“....Not to drive a business into the ground....”

The problem is union leadership never suffers when that happens. The rank & file are on they dole, the leadership just moves on and organizes someone else.
