The intent is what I see as unethical, if a company is backing a party who's platforms will negatively impact more people and programs than it will help strictly so that company will be able to make more money I don't see that as ethical. Just because something isn't illegal doesn't make it ethical, the kkk can hold a peaceful rally but that doesn't make what they are doing ethical.
And yes unions do lobby politicians as well, with the intent to help workers, their are more workers than corporations, in my view helping people while not hurting others is not unethical. Despite how things are twisted by the anti labour movement, unions are not looking to hurt companies, they simply try to keep the middle class from falling further behind, if they were out to destroy companies where would their members work?
