Union vs. Economy does not compute

With the UAW strike starting, the ongoing Hollywood strikes, the recent contract with UPS and union discussions across the board, I've read several articles claiming our current president has to make a decision between the economy and union support.  And to be frank, this is just wrong.  If the last 70 years have taught us anything, a strong middle class with good wages builds an economy, not tax breaks for the rich or low wages for labor workers.  The major corporate entities pushing to keep unions down are what's a threat to the economy, and supporting unions is the only way we're going to fix our looming economic crisis.  Support your local union, refuse to do business with companies who violate labor laws and treat their employees like cogs in a machine.
