Yes, but that’s not relevant to my point. More profit per employee means more capital for new initiatives means more employees.

  Ok then I don't understand. You brought up revenue comparisons as an argument against unionization, presumably because a company making less revenue per employee is somehow bad for employees. I claimed that revenue per employee is largely unrelated to compensation or benefits and we should really be talking about those things. Now you seem to agree that profit per employee doesn't affect wages but instead only benefits the corporation, which is able to start new projects.

    The point is that you were saying you’re not getting a share of the profits, my point is that the profits are being shared in the form of additional employees. If profits increased and employees stayed the same then you’d have a point.

      But why do I care about additional employees? It isn't a benefit to me whatsoever to have my employer hire another 50% more people.

        The new employees are obviously happy about it lol. Your mentality is generally the main issue with unions - old vs new.
