A new study demonstrates why the union bosses have never found a new government program they didn’t like – and why Big Labor spends hundreds of millions of dollars pushing for bloated bureaucracies like ObamaCare.
According to a National Institute for Labor Relations Research study, in 2008 and the first 11 months of 2009, unionized private-sector workers lost their jobs at more than double the rate of their private-sector non-unionized colleagues.
And now, for the first time ever, more than half of our nation’s government workers are under union boss monopoly bargaining control.
The union bosses are losing ranks in the private sector, but their forced dues empire continues to grow at a disastrous pace thanks to the growth of government.
As NILRR explains, “Today Big Government, not the private sector, is Big Labor’s bread and butter.”
Bigger government. Higher taxes. It all means more forced dues for Big Labor.
