right-to-work-statesSo where go for a job? Head to a state with ‘right to work’ laws in place.  Or make your own job by  starting  your own business.

Right to work states  include: Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Kansas, Florida, Georgia, Idaho,Indiana, Iowa, Louisiana, Michigan, Mississippi, Nebraska, Nevada, North Carolina, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming.

Boeing  in South Carolina recently voted overwhelmingly not to unionize.

In California, unfortunately, many middle class job seekers are leaving the state.

Kenneth Troske, an economics professor at the University of Kentucky, said he thinks right-to-work laws  help states attract businesses.

“[It] sends a signal to businesses that, as a state, we are trying to make ourselves more open and friendly and flexible as possible for businesses that want to locate here,” Troske said.

He said businesses like the promise of flexible workplace schedules which can increase productivity.

“That’s essentially what the research shows, is that when plants become unionized, you see a decline in their productivity,” Troske said.
