Union Membership

Excerpted from WSJ ltr, 8/7/5: "It is no wonder private-sector membership is falling. Unions exist for one reason: to do as little as possible for as much as possible. The competitive damage is insurmountable. Eventually the unions strangle their host to death and everyone loses. Look no further than the big air carriers, which are on the brink of collapse, or the Big Three auto makers, which are only a decade or two away from failure. It is the opposite in the union-free private sector that survives and prospers under the golden rule: produce more with less."
