makes about 50% less than skilled union labor?
very few homes are build with union labor (In 2011, only 14 percent of workers in the construction industry were members of unions,

and
in the residential market that proportion is likely far smaller, as the residential segment of the
construction industry is generally not represented by organized labor, even in areas that have
strong union representation in other parts of the workforce. For example, a 2007 report by the
Fiscal Policy Institute found that only five percent of residential construction workers belonged
to a union in New York City, which is one of the most union dense cities in the country.
