they will go up automatically, no more union dues, half their check will now go to their families.
Liar. Union dues are 2% of your gross pay.
So somewhere in the neighborhood of 4% of your take home pay. Nice raise.
Why don't you explain your math.
Gross pay: 1,000
Taxes: 300
Take home pay: 700
Union dues: 20
Union dues as a percentage of take home pay: 2.9%
Any other simple math I can do for you?
Yea but don't forget you cons think they are overpaid union workers. Don't act like you give a fuck if their pay goes up.
A
union wage premium refers to the degree in which
union wages exceed non-union member wages. Union wage premiums are one of the most researched and analyzed issues in economics especially in
labor economics. Unions and their struggle for wages and better benefits usually target larger firms that have a concentrated industry. Unions have an effect on wages, the probability of gaining benefits, productivity of the worker, and workplace protections.
Union wage premiums show the direct benefits of being a member of a union. Although the union wage premiums have fallen for
private sector, it has raised for the
public sector in the U.S.
[6] Union wage premiums also usually raise the wages of low-skilled workers more than those of high-skilled workers.
[3] Thus these low skilled workers usually have less education, lower wages, and in lower paid jobs.
[3] This mainly is the result of unions historically representing the working and lower classes. Most economist and labor studies on union wage premiums estimate a difference of about 15%
So union workers make 15% more than non union workers. Keep your fucking 2/9% you stupid bitch.
