>Setting aside this specific case, what is a business supposed to do if a union's demands are unreasonable and make it infeasible to keep the business profitable? If they try and replace the unionized workers, that is frowned upon and in some cases illegal. If they shut down the business due to no longer being viable, that seems to also be legally murky.

Don't sign a contract that's unreasonable and makes your business unprofitable. That's what the company is supposed to do.

But if they don't sign a contract, at some point they don't have labor, right? Which means they have to shut down..

If a business can't come to a basic working agreement with its workers, then of course it has to shut down.

They don't have to come to an agreement with the Union. They can come to an agreement with other workers.
