Quote:I think this is a symptom of what the unions have been doing for years: pricing themselves right out of the market. Not for the first time, either.

You got it. Economics of labor: at the enforced price of labor, the quantity of labor demanded is lower than the quantity of labor available = people in jobs make more, but fewer people have jobs. Effect of common COLA (cost of living adjustment) clauses, minimum wage, etc. Leads to either higher prices to maintain size of workforce, or smaller workforce to maintain product pricing.

Please note: oversimplification is employed in this statement.
but often it happens you know / that the things you don't trust are the ones you need most....
