It’s far worse than that. The unions heads make that argument but we never see union wages match gains from minimum wage.

They went from 7 to 10 bucks. That’s a near 40% boost. What union job has ever seen a 40% boost or even a 3$ boost after that?

It just doesn’t happen but union leadership lies and the lowest levels of the union buys it while the skilled union workers get shafted.

Some perhaps but I worked under U.A.W. contracts for 30+ years and no contract had anything whatsoever tied to the minimum wage.

Well, could be. I wouldn’t put it past them, and it does make sense.
