I view unionizing as less about making the overall economy stronger, and more about sharing the rewards of a strong economy more equally. The US economy is, for instance, quite strong overall. GDP per capita is high, substantially higher than other large nations like Japan, Germany, or France. The problem the average US worker faces is not that the economy overall is bad, but rather many issues of varying severity related to inequality and job security, like how they could be fired for almost any reason, legally speaking.
