It's a catch-22 though. Yes there are situations like you stated above. There are also situations where people are fired for the wrong reasons and a union steps in to protect them. When a safety condition exists that a union helps resolve (as the unions recently did for pilots the other day). When a police officer has to shoot someone out of self-defense, it's his union that defends him.
But this shouldn't be about if they are good or bad for people. That's up for each individual to decide on their own and whether they want to be a part of one. Making them illegal seems to go against our most basic principles of freedom.
