Not it isn't. You just call the multiplier "way lower" and that cinches it.

Not sure why contractors and owners all over this country are trying to crush unions. It must be because they value the worker's right to work and not because they'll make tons more money with no collective bargaining.

Thanks, Thurgreed, the idea that contractors and owners want to crush unions because they'll make more money is both highly relevant to what I was saying and also is something that never occurred to me. Brilliant.

I'm not really going to take your word for the stimulative effect of money in a union worker's pocket vs. that in an owner's pocket.

No one should "take my word" for it because I have been very explicit that I don't know and am just working through an argument here. I'm not trying to convince anyone of anything -- I am asking to be persuaded, something you so far are failing at.

Again, I think trickle down is complete bullshit and am surprised you are a proponent of it, even in this weird, roundabout way.

I am surprised you think I am a proponent of trickle down. I am now a proponent of stimulating the economy by paying for remedial reading instructions for you.
