About 12% of American workers are unionized. So where are these flaming hotbeds?

Unionization has been in decline since the 1950s, but at one point it was quite a significant component of the work force. The areas where Unionization was quite strong are all Democrat strongholds today.

I guess you don't have a broad knowledge of American history and the social dynamics and demographics of different areas of the country during the different periods.

I try to keep up with it because you never know what piece of knowledge will give you some insight into why something happened the way it did.

Govt jobs are almost universally unionized. It’s an ugly symbiosis for the taxpayers.

You’re being disingenuous again. You were not referring to the past, you were referring to the present time. I’m still waiting for you to tell me where these hotbeds of unionization are today.
