Re: “WA joins two other states in providing benefits for striking workers” (Might 19, Enterprise):
I suppose I had higher begin saving extra money now that the governor has determined to pay union employees to go on strike.
Clearly, we will probably be seeing many extra strikes demanding rather more cash, resulting in much less work being achieved, costs hovering and extra individuals on welfare. Even the strikers won’t actually profit to any diploma, as their greater wages gained’t probably purchase them any extra meals, garments or providers than their earlier wages.
It gained’t be lengthy earlier than they notice essentially the most vital affect of all of that is the diminished worth of any cash they’ve saved and pensions they are going to maybe obtain some day, similar to the diminished worth of my financial savings and pension.
