"Unionized truckers earn less than owner-operator truckers." I'd be very interested in how this is spun as by all measurements unionized truckers overwhelmingly have a much higher hourly wage than contractors. Are you talking take-home pay at the end of the year because the contractors work more hours? Or that there are more contractors so the expenditures of trucking companies go more towards contractors than unionized truckers?
