Help, in theory but have recently become corrupt and should have their powers limited

While the Nationals may agree with the sentiment that unions have become corrupt and should have their powers limited, they might not necessarily agree that unions help the economy in theory. Their stance is more nuanced, acknowledging the role of unions in protecting workers' rights but also criticizing their influence over policy and economic productivity.
