Yeah, it's hard to tease out those effects. While the correlation between the graphs looks interesting, it could easily be a fascinating coincidence.That said, while manufacturing does produce goods, and is a primary source of revenue in the economy, there is nothing, as far as I see, special about manufacturing work such that jobs in other industries couldn't benefit from the improved wages/conditions that comes with unionization. Traditionally, immigrants have weakened the strength of unions by giving employers an alternative. |
