According to you, the Founding Fathers would have approved of the UAW leeching off the rest of us so that Chevy could continue to produce the Vega.
Ok, so we were actually stymied from 1781-1992 before NAFTA and GATT. Good thing we got rid of that little blip in the radar of our nation's history.
My dad should be getting his pink slip in a few days, weeks, months now.
You see, when Boeing fires workers, and builds planes in China, they also fire Boeing subcontractors. My dad works at a non union shop btw, making machine tools for Boeing. Sure they aren't union workers, but they also aren't willing to work for 50 cents an hour either, go figure that.
So now that the planes are moving to China, it is 10 times easier to move the subcontracting jobs as well. He is 58, and has been a machinist for 30 years. I am sure there is a job out there for him that pays as well.

You are the one equating Unions with "regulating commerce", not me.
The Constitution grants the power to "regulate commerce" to Congress; there is nothing about Unions. That is entirely your misconception and yours alone.
