So its not just minimum wage
Husband works for a company that is the largest employer in the area. Also has the best payingnkobs anywhere in a 60 mile or more radius. The company, which has sites all over the country was bought by the koch brothers a few years ago.
they had a big union meeting, both production and maintenance, which is where he works...hes an electrician. they have a new wage proposal, affecting new hires only. The new pay rates would be nowhere near what they pay now for production hands or anyone else in a 'non classified' position. so, if one is a production hand for them in future...well, bye bye more middle class members. But..hey, at least theyll have a job, right? And someone has to dlip the burgers, and soon, watch a machine. I mean, anyone can do that, right?
