Is Business Really Anti-Union?

Over the last few years Big business and their allies have been waging war on Unions calling them, among other thing, anti-American. Question is, is business really anti-union? A union is a coalition of similar interests, people, or organizations that join together for their collective good. OPEC just happens to be a union (cartel) of oil producing nations. A conglomerate is a union (cartel) of companies come together for their collective good (profit). http://www.merriam-webster.com/thesaurus/cartel?show=0&t=1354205342 
Interesting to note, syndicate is synonymous with both cartel and mafia.
This attack on the working class is nothing more than smoke and mirrors by the Republican Party and their corporate sponsors. Corporations are nothing more than a union of shareholders, a cartel, a mafia. Worker Unions are also a cartel, a mafia if you will, with one slight difference. The sole purpose of incorporation is to limit they companies liability/liabilities monetarily and legally. Workers Unions were and are there to keep the business owners from forcing workers to toil in substandard conditions for little to no pay in order to increase (maximize) profits at the cost of workers health and lives. Without unions there never would have been OSHA rules, vacation, daily and weekly time worked limits, healthcare, retirement and age limits banning child labor or a middle class with the buying power to fuel a consumer driven market.

So, is Big Business really anti-union? No. They just don't want workers unionized fighting the union of them. It's all the same thing, business just uses a different term. A synonym is a synonym none the less. Corporations are unions. Unions are made up of people but they like corporations are not people.
