Yes, you are focusing on what was most of America a couple of generations ago or so.
Most people rented and lived with multiple people to a home.
Most if they had a clunker of a car were grateful.
I think there needs to be a law passed that all government union jobs may not exceed in wage the paycheck and benefits of similar jobs in the private sector.
You'd see the government wage jobs be cut in half by that, and IMO they should be.
Why is WalMart a target, and how is it "we the people" have to pay double wage value with benefits to government workers and unions.
If not for the government cash cow, unions would already be dead now.
Well said and absolutely correct about public unions and the excessive benefits taxpayers have to pay for public employees.
well, yes unfortunately the unions, even though in their inception, the cause was necessary, although now they're notably overpaid and underworked employees. I grew up in a very blue-collar, union-friendly town, and all the guys couldn't wait to graduate, not so they could go to college, but so they could get a union factory job, making total bank and do nothing, with an inability to get fired for doing so. Add in a pension and hey, you have yourself a tidy little nest egg for doing marginal labor and forcing the wage margin up so high that nothing else could match it.
