Labor Unions Aggravate Inflation by Lowering Wages http://www.fee.org/publications/the-freeman/article.asp?aid=298 It is commonly believed that labor unions generate inflation by increasing the wages of workers. This is not the case. Labor union activities do aggravate inflation, but they do it by reducing the real wages received by workers, not by increasing them. An understanding of why this is true requires, first of all, a brief explanation of the cause of inflation.
