Hey, this is huge news for the area I'm in. It's been so bad that even people in 'professional' non-union jobs have only had 2% raises a couple of times in the last decade. Wages have been stagnant and the starting rate had been decreasing for YEARS. All of the doctors/dentists have fled the area and even our hospital had to contract in doctors. Most routine health care is done  via Skype. But now wages are rising & new businesses are springing up all over the place. Even our local manufacturing has been rebounding after most of the plants had closed down during the Obama Disaster Era. I'm excited to see things getting better!
