No, they procure high wages at the expense of corporate profits. There’s a direct link between union busting and a booming market for super yachts. So if you enjoy doing coke off a stripper’s backside on your private island then you probably don’t like unions very much.

That is beyond insanity to assume there is a causation between the two.

A union works by resctricting supply of labor to increase the price it costs to procure it. Just like OPEC with oil. Cartels are bad when OPEC does it and they're bad when labour unions do them. Please don't defend cartels.
