Instead of the union being a de facto endorsement of a particular worker, it acts to protect its own power over the workers. Instead of the company having a choice about who to hire for a particular role, it is forced into one choice. Instead of workers joining a union for their own benefit, they are forced to join because of legal coercion. The union is highly motivated to control and limit its members--freedom for the members means destruction of the union.

All of the statements in that paragraph are false.

Downvoted not because I disagree with you (I do), but because you offer up no counterpoint/arguments to support your opinion.

The original quote doesn't offer any arguments to support its claim. It's just a statement of opinion as fact.
