Healthcare costs are really at the core of all of these labor issues. I know that municipalities are having (and have had over the last few decades) a hell of a time matching the annual healthcare increases for insuring their employees and/or raising salaries, if at all. It's put straight onto the homeowners to pay increasing property taxes* so one can imagine how that goes over when you are an elected official.
Another indicator that it is well past time to overhaul the broken healthcare system in this country.
