I believe non union people are finally realizing that unions are good only for union members. Fantastic for union leaders.
What non union people are getting through their hard heads is that they pay for all of the union benefits through higher prices and taxes and they get nothing in return. It usually takes a long time for smarts to soak into hard heads. It always eventually does.
An associate in Ohio that had always supported unions has finally stopped supporting union higher benefits for teachers when he found out their average salary was about 40% higher than his and his real estate taxes on his home went up almost a $1,000/year.
Suckers.
