[/media-credit]According to NewsMax, Terry Miller, director of the Center for International Trade and Economics at the Heritage Foundation knows why some states struggle while others are booming — Right To Work freedom:
“He points out that the 23 right-to-work states stretching from the Deep South through an unbroken north-south corridor from the Dakotas down to Texas, and then west to Arizona and Idaho are practically all solidly red. And most of them are faring relatively well. Miller says, ‘States with right-to-work laws are really the places where you look for more economic development right now. Boeing’s move a year ago from Washington state to South Carolina being a great case in point.'”
“If Michiganders can keep the momentum going this year, they may soon have their Right to Work law back.”
On average, forced-unionism states are roughly 22% more expensive to live in than Right to Work states. And decades of academic research show that compulsory unionism actually fosters a higher cost of living.
Under current law, union dues are often extracted from Idaho teachers’ paychecks without their active consent.
