\nAs we struggle to get in our tax returns before the April 15 deadline, it’s worth considering Big Labor’s impact on state and federal taxation.

In 2009, more unionized workers were employed in the public sector than by private employers for the first time in history<\/a>.

\n\tIn mid-December, two of America\u2019s best known labor economists, Drs. Barry Hirsch and David Macpherson, released their analysis of Current Population Survey (CPS) data for the first 11 months of 2009, indicating strongly that last year, for the first time ever, a majority of unionized workers across America were government employees.\n\t<\/p>\n

\n\tToday Big Government, not the private sector, is Big Labor\u2019s bread and butter<\/u>. That\u2019s why union bosses unabashedly push for higher taxes and bigger government, and seem unconcerned that the policies they advocate will surely slash overall private-sector job growth in future years.\n\t<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
