I think you're confused. VW has unions in Germany because Germany actually cares about its citizens. They wouldn't have unions if you gave them the option.
I've worked in Union houses in Germany and you're right.
It was a contingency when world war 2 ended that the boards in Germany be made in part of union members, it was a US idea
VW tried twice to unionize their US factory in Chattanooga. Both times the workers voted against unionisation.
VW does a lot for unions and workers councils compared to other companies.
No, UAW tried to unionize twice and VW did everything they could to stop it.
The VW management, the German union and the German Workers council wanted the plant to unionize.
VW is a lot more pro union than Amazon. Die to German law there are a lot of union members on the board.
The 2014 vote was opposed by local politicians, mainly republicans.

Your comment is like saying Amazon wanted unions but the workers didn't.
VW wanted the union at the first vote.
