Consumers actually paid *less* for goods and services(proportional to their income) during Union's heyday. So your argument doesn't work.

I don't know where you're getting that but it doesn't matter. What matters is that they still paid more then than they would have if there had been no union. The money to pay higher wages had to come from somewhere.

I don't think the Rockefellers, Carnegies and Fords missed it that much.
