wirewresler,
Your right on, somebody has to pay for it, and its probably us the taxpayers. Whenever you artificially set a wage higher than what the "supply and demand" calls for, then it is comming out of someone elses pocket.
Its the same with minimum wage, it does not work, the cost will just get passed down.
Unions can be the same way. We should all be paid for what we are worth to the employer, if not, we can quit and go somewhere else or start our own business. Its called Free Enterprise, or Capitolism. "Its what works".
