Unionized companies through the fifties and sixties were still a good investment. They would have been a better investment if they hadn't been unionized, but is that the only consideration? If someone works hard and stays reliable they should get a living wage, at least from where I stand. I remember when the Teamsters went on strike at Welch's in my hometown, they were after what I think could fairly be called a living wage. The grape farmers said they would be ruined if the strike was successful, it was successful and the town prospered, working class people could afford to buy their own homes, and the grape farmers, kept their yachts, even got larger ones, I remember driving my girlfriend's family yacht. I make my money through investing and I'd rather make less and live in a fairer society (not a leftist by the way). There's also a security issue here, too.
