Solving Illegal Immigration: Labor Unions in Latin America!
#11
RE: Solving Illegal Immigration: Labor Unions in Latin America!
Here you go, Crist. I'd say that Huff Po published this just for you but the timing is amazing!

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/robert-cre...70047.html

Quote:Over the last 30 years many in corporate America and the big Wall Street banks have conducted a sustained attack on that human right. Unionization dropped from 20.1 percent of the workforce in 1983 to 11. 3 percent in 2013 -- and the results are there for everyone to see.

During that period productivity and Gross Domestic Product per capita both increased by roughly 80 percent in America. But the wages of ordinary Americans have remained stagnant. Virtually all of the fruits of that increased productivity have gone to the wealthiest 1 percent of Americans.

No wonder the gang on Wall Street opposes unions.
