No, it's not because of capitalism. They can't because they're not just fighting evil corporations, they're also fighting the laws of economics. If you increase prices you reduce demand. Some lucky workers might benefit, but the majority will not. Hence the lie behind "unions increase everyone's wages."

Supply and demand.
