Changes in the Effectiveness of State Medicaid Drug Program Cost-Containment Policies Following Obra 1990
Containment of Medicaid pharmaceutical drug program costs continues to be an important policy problem. Perhaps the most important policy of the past two decades with significant implications for Medicaid pharmaceutical drug programs was the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (OBRA) of 1990. This study analyzes Medicaid drug spending data from 1985 to 1997 to determine how OBRA 1990 influenced the effectiveness of existing drug cost-containment pol…
Government Wage Differentials in a Municipal Labor Market
Previous studies of wage and fringe benefit differentials between public and private sector workers have generally employed one of three different methods to measure the differentials. This study is the first to use all three simultaneously. The authors find that the Houston Metropolitan Transit Authority provided total hourly compensation that was 82.8% higher for cleaners, 82.9% higher for bus drivers, and 31.3% higher for mechanics than the co…

Welfare Expenditures and the Decline of Unions
To what extent has the increased supply by government of certain union-like services reduced the demand for union membership and thereby contributed to the decline in trade union density? The existing empirical evidence is meager and conflicting. The puropse of our paper is to reexamine the government substitution hypothesis, specifically with respect to the relationship between government welfare spending and union density. We test the hypothesi…
Union-Nonunion Wage Differentials in the Public Administration, Educational, and Private Sectors
William J. Moore, John Raisian, Union-Nonunion Wage Differentials in the Public Administration, Educational, and Private Sectors: 1970-1983, The Review of Economics and Statistics, Vol. 69, No. 4 (Nov., 1987), pp. 608-616
The Effects of Right-to-Work Laws
This paper reviews the several studies that have assessed the impact of right-to-work (RTW) laws on union membership, wages, and industry location. The authors show that the considerable difference in findings among these studies results largely from whether a study treats the presence or absence of an RTW law as an exogenous variable or one jointly endogenous with the extent of unionism in a state. Studies using the latter approach, which the au…

Occupational Licensure and Regulation
The papers of this volume, which were prepared for a Conference on Occupational Licensure and Regulation in February 1979, contain findings that sometimes confirm, sometimes question, and sometimes modify the prior consensus of professional judgment on occupational licensing

On the Prospects for American Trade Union Growth
THEORISTS of the American labor movement long have argued over the causes of fluctuations in union membership and the prospects for future union growth. For a number of years, the hypothesis of Commons (1932) and Perlman (1966), which related union expansion to the business cycle, was the most widely accepted explanation of the fluctuations in union membership. the years, a number of critics such as Dunlop (1948), Shister (1953), and Bernstein (1…
