Men who belonged to unions their entire career made up to $1.3 million more on average than men who never joined one,Β according to new research.
Those belonging to unions made about $3.4 million from ages 20 to 64, compared to $2.1 million for those who were never union members. Cornell University's Industrial and Labor Relations (ILR) Review published the findings.
The study analyzed data from the Panel Study of Income Dynamics (PSID) from 1969 through 2019. The men studied had to be no older than 25 between 1969 and 1973.
The sample consists only of men because women earners are categorized as "spouse" in the PSID, and data on spouses only began being collected consistently in 1979, the researchers said.
Researchers calculated career earnings using total years employed, mean hours worked per year, and the mean hourly wage.
Men with no college degree who have been in a union at least half their career had expected earnings of $1.96 million by age 65, while those with no college degree who have never been in a union or been in one less than half of their career have projected earnings of about $1.5 million.
Inversely, people with college degrees who have been in a union for more than half their careers made less ($2.16 million) than those with college degrees who have never been in a union ($2.67 million), "likely because of the association of union membership and occupations worked," the study says.
Though, across the board, belonging to a union was associated with an increased probability of retiring at or before age 65.

As a software dev, these calls for a union always piss me off. It's always the shittiest developers pushing for it, because if you're actually good in this field, you make way above average. These failures are just trying to drag my compensation down to their level.
Thankfully it'll never happen because people like me exist and would never join.
I'll just say that if you can be replaced by some sexy Indian dude then you're not good at your job.

Yep. Salaries here are negotiated at a personal level. If you're good, you'll be paid well - if you aren't, you can switch jobs to get more pay elsewhere. If you can't find a job that pays you what you think you're worth, then you're not worth that much.
I've been at the same company for 7 years now and my average annual raise is around 20%, compounding. Because I'm good at what I do and my employer thinks it's worth spending this money on me to keep me around.

I'm gonna laugh my fricking butt off when you get replaced by GPT-5 in 3 years, knowing that "people like you" (aka self-important codecels) will be the equivalent of a five year old with a pencil compared to the master AI artist and that tech companies will race amongst themselves to replace your inflated salary with as many AI models they can run.

Unlike with art, software engineering actually requires precision. If you mess up some pixels in your drawing it doesn't matter. If you mess up a line of code then it won't run.

It'll become in part a proofreading profession and the amount of code we consider boilerplate will greatly increase. AI generating art isn't just a one iteration then you're done thing, you generate heaps with the prompts and tweak a few things, look at the presented array of pictures and select the best, tweaking it yourself at the margins. For AI generated code I imagine it'd be similar
Anything that's promptable and has been done before (literally 99% of all coding) will have this as a tool lowering the cognitive requirements of the field.

Obviously senior devs would still make more. A union would just help prevent code monkeys from being fricked over by r-slurred management.

How about something truly hilarious like personal trainers? The best part is that it'll be a double-whammy when some white couple has a dark kid... and then the kid turns out more successful than their half-siblings.
I'm surprised more artificial insemination kids haven't come out a shade or two darker than expected given the number of Asian doctors. Maybe everyone is just too worried about being called a racist to say anything. I heard of one story where the kid was pretty dark, despite a white donor, and the rich single mom just didn't say anything.
