That there are firms that actively work to bust unions is something mindblowing for me. Where I live not only you are free to join an union but your employer could get in serious trouble if they did something to avoid you joining one.

In the US the laws haven't kept up with the ruthless tactics "labor relations" industry. For example, the law says that the company cannot threaten to retaliate by closing a workplace that unionizes. What it can do is "project" that the workplace will no longer be economical to run. This apparently happened with Amazon in Alabama recently.
