Union Leader For Higher Unemployment

The Wall Street Journal reports on Andrew Stern:

Universal health care, widespread unionization, stronger regulations on business, profit-sharing for employees, higher taxes -- all that sounds like Western Europe. Mr. Stern considers that a worthy model. "I think Western Europe as much as we used to make fun of it has made different trade-offs which may have ended up with a little more unemployment but a lot more equality."

Europe's has consistently higher unemployment,but that doesn't bother Andrew Stern.
