Tom, which way are union plants? More or less productive?



According to a quick Google, union plants are 14% more productive but as

Ron
says union people make 30% more money. My point is non-union shops are

more
cost effective and that says it all.


And if employers paid a fair wage and provided a clean, safe, working
environment no one would need to be a union member. What are the chances of
that happening due to the good will of businessmen? The reality is
businessmen want to return to the bad old days before unions when they
treated workers like animals. They've found it now too. By moving production
facilities overseas all the constraints imposed by unions on American
companies can be completely avoided by making third world inhabitants what
American workers were before unions. You have to hand it to business, they
never stop trying to screw their workers. The only difference is that it
isn't American workers that businesses are screwing but foreign workers.
