Odd, I looked through those two links and nothing said anything about 88% except for you. So where did you get that number from?
Unless your math is really bad, which is very possible.
I didn't add it up. Each of those category links in the .gov document gives the number of workers.
Over 500K workers were in union jobs.
The author just added up all the workers in unions vs workers not in unions.

So you are saying, you are willing to pay, $10 for a hamburger at a fast food restaurent? How many people do you think will be put out of business if unions get thier way?
Don't give them so much credit. The price of a hamburger is inversely proportional to the cost of labor, by a power of 3.162 (rounded). So, the cost of a hamburger will rise by $5.63 for every three cent raise in labor costs. Do the math. I get $15 to $18 per Big Mac, but the raise given to the workers does not offset this additional cost to the company. We're doomed.
