Someone on this list correct me if I'm wrong, but most of the workers
in southern-based auto manufacturing plants located in so-called
"right-to-work"states make almost as much as their union counterparts
in terms of the hourly wage, but they have no health benefits or
pension plans.

In terms of unionization drives there, don't hold your breath.
