Employee Civil Rights

I have never been part of a union but now wish I had been because it seems that if you aren't a member you have no rights in your workplace against "rules" that would appear to be unconstitutional. US 1982 say § 1982. Property rights of citizens
All citizens of the United States shall have the same right, in every State and Territory, as is enjoyed by white citizens thereof to inherit, purchase, lease, sell, hold, and convey real and personal property.

Yet more and more employers are infringing on this right. Saying if you work in this retail store you can buy from this store even if you are not a contracted employee and one would assume a regular citizen when not on the clock. Or a beverage distributor who says you can drink any product that we do not distribute.

Who protects against this type of thing is it isn't a union? Or do you think those type of restictions on a persons civil liberitys are ok?
