Employers believed that collective bargaining would be costly, put them at a disadvantage and take away their right to manage their employees effectively. On the other hand, larger corporations have a more positive outlook in terms of collective bargaining, believing it that can have the effect of keeping the workforce happy and therefore more productive.

No, government is not involved as a party to collective bargaining, and government had regulated US business since the founding, and mort directly since the 1880's Interstate commerce and railroad acts.

Businesses resisted CB because they saw no reason for WORKERS to have a voice in setting working conditions and limiting employer authority when workers have zero stake in the business. Workers are paid for every hour worked even if the employer makes no profit. Owners are not paid (dividends or stock appreciation) unless the business makes a profit. Businesses should be riun for the benefit of owners who risk their money, not workers who have no money at risk.
