Unions Cost You
Impact of union labor on the average household is substantial,
because companies must pass their costs on to the customer in their product

Unions can pressure the companies to increase union employees’
wages and benefits by treat of strikes, slowdowns or walkouts.
Companies must enter into contracts with the union and have little
choice on their hiring, as all new employees must join the union.
