You know that placing two charts on each other doesn't prove a correlation, right? Good unions are probably good for workers though. Is there one for IT guys?

I'd say this does show correlation, they go up and down at similar rates at similar times. The question is if it's causal, which causes the other or what is causing both?

Yes, that's what I meant to say. You put in right words

There's been a ton of research on this and the effect of higher unionization is pretty well documented and understood. There's a reason why anti-union "consulting" companies are so lucrative.
