...The one bright spot among all the economic news is that union wages continue to climb, with California unions paying some of the highest wages anywhere.

Unions are job and prosperity killers. Look at the states free from the stranglehold of these labor thugs -- that's where business is booming.

Yes, I know. My point was that Union wages are actually tied to the Minimum Wage, though not everyone is aware of that. When it goes up, their pay goes up too. It’s one of the side-effects of a minimum wage hike, and makes the economic decline that much worse on top of the MW’s damage.

Why in the world is Alaska a union state?

Are you talking about public employee unions or trade unions?
