I don't discount all the union naysaying. To me, many, many of them have outlived their once-critically necessary role, and now only served to price American products/services out of the marketplace in many industries.

HOWEVER, do you think that old sayings become old sayings for no good reason? The one I am thinking of is, "What's good for General Motors is good for America". There would be hundreds of thousands of workers laid off and many if not most permanently. Thousands of smaller sized business going out of business. How could that be a "good" thing for our economy?
