Todd, you hit the nail on the head.....The unions raise the prevailing wage for an area, and they make sure that we the workers get paid fairly. The days of the union are dwindling and that kills me. I'm so pleased to hear somebody feel strongly about unions. Before I hired out on the RR, I was a union Steelworker. I had many discussions with college grad types who were against unions. My reply...lets compare paychecks. Of course I'm not comparing to the few that actually get good jobs. I'm comparing to the many that are working waiting tables with their degree. And you are absolutely correct, if it were up to the big business men there would be only two classes. These business clowns don't realize...a better paid workforce buys more of their products. A lesser paid workforce cannot afford to buy..........
