But, the Chamber opposing Right to Work is a jaw dropper. Is there a catch?

and that our economy is healthier when workers actually have some money to spend

People were angry about out of state and foreign money goign against the laws they wanted in their states. What amazes me about Michigan is that they have GOP Governor, etc. in charge yet it seems they would solid Democratic. A rural or perhaps religious element is in play there.

I think RTW for less laws are bad. particularly if unions are not encouraged to organize and labor laws not strictly enforced. And that is usually how it is. That is what brings everyone/s standard of living up and it's good for business.
