The union boys would never admit that the attempt to unionize forced the move and the contractor had to shut down.

That scenario does present a problem; keep on working for crap wages, enduring crap treatment, or bring management to the table to bargain for a better deal. If management closes the plant, are the workers really worse off? If the pay and treatment was really bad, they would have quit and gone to work elsewhere, anyway. There are companies known as "swinging doors" because, no matter how bad the economy is, they are always looking for new hires, because they can't retain anyone.
