Who contributes more to OUR overall economy, a union carpenter earning $30.00 an hr. or a (possibly illegal)non-union carpenter working for $8.00 spending what money he doesn't send back to Mexico at Walmart?

Ask your local union members where they're spending their money, and whether they're buying only American-made goods.
