Private unions don’t need the govt to reduce them. The market has been doing that for a few decades. Outside of the automakers, pipefitters, ironworkers, private unions have been steadily on the decline.
Righto. And as the weight of supporting public unions is lifted and business investment starts up again, more and more private sector unions are going to undergo the same kind of attrition. The handwriting is on the wall, it’s a question of timing, and Walker has shown how to win the war, one battle at a time.
