OK, I understand that, but that doesn't mean what you said. Some of the large flaws with your logic here.
1 - you assume that all employees not in a union will leave if they're unhappy. Based on anecdotal reports, most employees who are unhappy just stay. Even if you disagree with the actual percentage here, your analysis fully ignores this group of employees, and you must admit that there is some percentage of employees who hate their jobs, but just stay anyways.
2 - you assume that all employees that are unionized are unhappy (or maybe, would have been unhappy had they not unionized and gotten a better deal).
