"Wisconsin membership in the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees—the state's second-largest public-sector union after the National Education Association, which represents teachers—fell to 28,745 in February from 62,818 in March 2011, according to a person who has viewed Afscme's figures. A spokesman for Afscme declined to comment."
That's a big drop.
Here's a list of nations by union membership as a percentage of all employees.
American must really be annoyed with unions these days since they represent a rather small figure of the work force. Canada has 2 1/2 times more membership - mostly in Quebec and Newfoundland. France came in last, which is a bit of a shocker really.
40% of Quebec's work force is unionized.
That's, like, a lot.
