So as far as corporations fighting unions, the gamble that a union takes is assuming they arent replaceable. If they’re correct, they can get concessions from an employer. If they’re not? Employer can find outside employees or fire people refusing to work. There are some protections for people looking to organize, but the teeth of unionization are labor strikes, and if an employer can hire around them then there really is not much threat from unionization.
