Well, except defrauding the finding that you pay back wages and reinstate (with union) the employees you fired probably means you still gotta reinstate them and allow them to keep a union. And now you have a very hostile workforce who will all but ensure any new hires are pulled into the union. So really just a colossal mistake as far as I can tell.
