You know, when i was in college, there was a big debate: do unions raise wages? well, with regard to industrial unions, there were arguments back and forth -- international competition. it is now clear, i think, that whether or not you think unions raised wages 50 years ago, the absence of unions and their weakness that is inflicted by anti-union public policy depresses wages. the fact is that people who are not represented, in the service industries in particular, are the victims of policies which depress their wages.
