Unions - Public support at all-time low
That's what the recent Gallup Poll indicates...
Byron York reports this and more at WashingtonExaminer.com:
"This Labor Day brings word of a new Gallup poll showing that American public support for labor unions has taken a sharp dive in the last year and is at its lowest point since Gallup began polling in 1936.
In response to the question, 'Do you approve or disapprove of labor unions?' just 48 percent of respondents said they approve, while 45 percent said they disapprove. That's a steep fall from August 2008, when the numbers were 59 percent approve, 31 percent disapprove, and it's the first time approval of unions has ever fallen below 50 percent."
