They can’t cut union rates since they have a contract. So they can, within reason, pay non union workers more but not lower the pay of union workers. One of the benefits of being in the union is that they can’t just lower your wages and they may have issues firing you for bad reasons.
There’s a limit to how much they can pay the ununionized workers before it becomes clear they’re trying to interfere with the workers rights to free organization. In the image, it’s quite likely that the extra 50¢ is union dues, or could be explained as related to costs.
Aren’t people with college educations more likely to end up in a union? One of the reasons some places don’t want to hire “overqualified” people is because they’re afraid of unionization.
There’s a variety of reasons for the decline of unions in the US, the main ones being:
Anti-union laws and propaganda (Mike Rowe being a big one)
Offshoring of manufacturing jobs
Major unions defanging themselves by purging radicals/communists to prove they’re “one of the good ones”
Literally not what I said at all. I said that you are more likely to be in a union if you have more education. Do you bother looking anything up before trying to incorrectly correct others?
At this point it’s extremely obvious that you’re just trolling.

Not until everyone leaves the union to get extra pay and the union loses all its bargaining power.
That doesn’t make any sense. If it’s about union dues, the union pay is what should be higher.
I love how people downvote my comments with absolutely zero explanation of why I’m wrong.
Replace leaving the union with going to college instead and you get why we have a 3 generation straight loss in union membership.
People told their kids to chase more money and then spent that money on cheaper foreign products and the whole house fell down within 20 years.
This was the plan by the way for capitalists.

No most higher education jobs aren’t union. Do you bother to lookup anything by yourself before you speak about things?

I’m not going to raise time to look, Im fairly sure someone did but regardless it’s widely known easily available information.

It’s extremely obvious you are trolling or legitimately ignorant on basic civics, take your pick.
Neither of those links are remotely relevant to how higher education correlates with union membership. Trolling.
Name one industry in good faith
You couldn’t have possibly looked over all of the aflcios educational information. You’re trolling and you’re extremely bad at it.
