Which is a totally acceptable point of view. He's even said he won't make any moves to stop them from unionizing.

Now, whether you believe him or not is up to you, but I don't think anything he's said on the topic is ethically wrong.

    With respect, I would disagree. Taking it personally is a problem. Expecting everyone else to 'just trust me bro' is a problem. Look at it another way- 'if my staff unionize and anything needs to change then I've already failed as a boss'

    This seems like a weird interpretation, at least based on the paraphrasing above. There's no implicit anti union sentiment, it's just acknowledging he has an obligation to be a good steward for his employees?

    It's wrong in the sense that he apparently believes that he is able to provide everything that a union does, which is hilarious.

    A union has hundreds or thousands of specialist employees working full time for the members, and this guy is like: "yeah I can do that while also managing my company".

    At best he is saying "I'm willing to pay people to shut the fuck up."

    In reality he probably doesn't even have a clue about what a union is about.
