Inflation charge against unions is fake says Labor Research Assn
New York editorial writers claim a 3 percent wage rise does not force 30 percent price hikes. The Labor Research Assn cites FTC data showing 1940 labor costs were 25.5 percent of total costs, meaning a 30 percent wage rise would only lift product prices about 7.7 percent.
