Union bosses are out for themselves by acting like they care for the dues-paying union members. Then they have fundraisers and junkets with the pols. Most employers care about workers or they wouldn't have any to begin with - the question is how you treat your employees as a C - level. If you are crappy, then it shows. If not then more people will join and if you have a good plan and marketability then you will grow.

Speaking to a higher argument for this thread, the whole class warfare, evil rich, good poor and middle class thing happened before and didn't turn out that well, iirc.

Your "class warfare" speak was seen in Mitt's speech, and the rhetoric abounds all over.  Union bosses = evil.  Corporations = good.  Poor = lazy and user of drugs.  Rich = the wealth producers and hard workers who you can't "punish" or they will stop hiring people.  It is rhetoric going on, and not just what you said.  Class warfare goes beyond words you speak, FAR beyond it.  It happens when one class, usually the under class, feels that it is being ripped off and is denied the basics of life, like food.  To equate discussing such issues and rhetoric as "class warfare" is to say "Let's all remain blind to the issues".  Want to see real class warfare?  How about blood in the streets?  See what is discussed here:
