I guess we disagree on whether unions should fight for enough wages for their workers to support a family.

Should people with families get paid more in order to support them? Why would a single person need to get paid as much as a person supporting another adult without a job and two children?

Yes. So much of our economy is built on the idea that future people will be able to support and pay for today's economic choices.

IMO single people should also make more.

I just think "can they support a family of 4" is a decent heuristic for whether people are getting paid enough.
