I don't think that is the issue at all...MOST workers, union and non-union usually sacrifice some wages for benefits. You might be interested in knowing that the unions are in an uproar over being taxed on it. Go figure.
And most of their income is not in health benefits. Go check out an average salary for a GM worker. It is NOT average.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
