I would agree with that. The cases where wages were sufficient to exceed wages lost during a strike were probably very short duration strikes. I would have to see proof before believing that any long duration strike ever resulted in a net gain fro the union members.

That is twice as interesting, in 1955 union membership was probably twice as high as it is now.
