"The truth is that unions are essentially parasitic organizations that
thrive only by draining and ultimately destroying the companies and
industries they control."

A favorite quotation from the libertarian socialist, Noam Chomsky:

"All over the place, from the popular culture to the propaganda
system, there is constant pressure to make people feel that they are
helpless, that the only role they can have is to ratify decisions and
to consume."
