More public sector employees (7.9 million) belonged to a union than did private-sector employees (7.4 million), despite there being 5 times more wage and salary workers in the private sector.

Workers in education, training, and library occupations had the highest unionization rate at 38.1 per cent.

Black workers were more likely to be union members than were white, Asian, or Hispanic workers.

Among states, New York had the highest union membership rate (25.2 per cent) and North Carolina had the lowest rate (3.1 per cent).

Given the information above, answer the following questions. Be sure to provide explanations with your answers. Remember an explanation is always more than one or two sentences.

1. A union member must pay dues to belong to a union. Do the benefits receive justify the dues paid?

2. Does society overall benefit from Unions?

3. If you were opening up a manufacturing plant to produce powerboats, would you be more apt to locate in New York or North Carolina?
