Wow that makes it seem like the world has had no evolution that was not brought by unions. This seems a bold projection. The reason we have become wealthier is innovation and increases in productivity. I am not saying unions did not have a place in the rise of the economy, but even countries without unions have grown standards of living over the past 100 years.@AbbySvenz

@southbeachguy none of that innovation and productivity would have happened without the working class people

@Loopysoutherner What about aspirational working class, if whom there are many. Including myself
