Whats funny about her maps in chapter 3, is that the states with the highest union percentages also have the highest taxes (perhaps political corruption to, but that is debatable).

I know from my experiences in NY and Cali that there is a lot of redundancy and inefficiency mostly at the public sector but also in certain corrupt private sectors like construction and plumbing/electrical work, these services cost a lot more than they did while I lived in NC and CO.

I agree that a strong middle class is one of the most important things to a healthy national economy but this correlation between high numbers of unions
and higher tax levels is, maybe some thing worth looking into?
