Here's the hole in your argument: Now that "A Co" is paying higher wages, it must raise prices or subsidize the higher pay with other stores. Which means that: 1.) Now other businesses can compete with A Co because their costs are equal or less than A co, or 2.) Other businesses compete with A Co by offering better service due to their more highly paid, but better, workforce, or 3.) Other towns now pay higher prices or their wages drop because A Co is subsidizing Happy Town. Unions, by asking for higher wages, lower your wages or raise your prices. Unions seems to think that there's some money tree out there and they just need to pick more dollars. There isn't. Higher wages mean higher prices. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Find out how CFTicket can increase your company's customer support efficiency by 100% http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=49 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:189031 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
