The difference is livelihood versus profits. One of the sums of money pays rent, utilities, food, while the other sum of money pays stockholders dividends.

I understand the sentiment, but this isn't always true. Some workers need unions while working for non-profit companies.

The difference is more to do with the power imbalance between workers and managers.
