U.S. workers who belong to unions earn 30 percent more than non-union
workers.


Bureau of Labor Statistics, "Union Members in 2006, Table 2. Median
weekly earnings of full-time wage and salary workers by union
affiliation and selected characteristics." Current Population Survey,
January 2007.

I would nt worry too much longer about whether union or non union members
earn more or less - the Chinese will only be prepared to pay you in bowls
of
rice, you may get jobs tending their gardens after their banks (formerly
your banks) foreclose on your mortgages and put high ranking members of
the
Chinese Communist Party in them as holiday homes.




"The China Price"
They are the three scariest words in U.S. industry. Cut your price at
least 30% or lose your customers.


The problem started many years ago when the unions forced employers to
pay wages that were out of line with their production. The average person
then had to start looking elsewhere for products they could afford.



Nearly every manufacturer is
vulnerable -- from furniture to networking gear. The result: A massive
shift in economic power is under way
