...Archie, is the creation of an entire class of people who believe that they deserve, are entitled to, a middle class income for performing unskilled labor. That's what I see as the function of unions today.
I'd love to see your union activist based response to Katie's note. She earned her Masters Degree in Science last year. Tell her why her starting wage as a college chemistry teacher is less than that of an unskilled, uneducated member of a labor union! Is her startinng wage too little? Probably. Is the starting wage for the unskilled, uneducated member of a labor union too much? Absolutely, and not by just a little bit!
