63. I thought Michigan unions got people *out* of working class?
I know lots of working class and union workers, but most of the working class, union, non-governmental folks (trades) don't have very good coverage, and the union, governmental folks make *far* above anything that could be called working class wages. But I've spent most of my life in "right-to-work" states, with all that entails... pensions are a pipe dream for us, let alone health plans that cover massage and acupuncture :wtf:, as I saw in one thread.

If you have a link to others (or a # in this thread) that covers actual working class numbers, that would be appreciated.
