+ In a free market without monopoly in its industry



Is your argument that unions are effective against monopolistic companies?

Maybe, but it's an approach of looking into the abyss.

Have a lot of implicit assumptions about the market that company operates in, assumptions that may or may not be true in the modern global economy.
