I'm not leaving out any states (see below, added more). As I said, those are the states with current right to work laws, that have had those laws this past year and before. Is Michigan right to work? (was not on the list)

Yes, there are other states, in fact many more states, that are economically doing better than the above "right to work" states. They do not have right to work laws, however.

If the point of passing right to work is to improve the economic condition of the state, shouldn't the first thing be to see if it has worked in the past?

Here, found more right to work states:

Nevada
North Carolina
North Dakota
Oklahoma
South Carolina
South Dakota
Tennessee
Texas
Utah
Virginia
Wyoming

What proof is there that these states havent improved? Because you say other states are "doing better"? To what degree does anything pertaining to employees and if they are unionized or not have on "economic conditions" of a state?

I mean I'm sure Mississippi and Idaho would be booming if they had more union workers...

Their economic ratings.

Use whatever you want. Post them here. Show that right to work states have better economic ratings (state GDP, growth, etc.) than non-right to work states. I'll be interested to see what answer you come up with.

I have no point to prove, you were the one who made the statement without facts. You may not have been an economic major but you aren't really going to use unionization or lack thereof as the sole basis of the economic health of a state are you? That would be like rating an NFL team based on the long snapper.

Business Insider ranked the top 10 states in terms of Economic Growth.
8 were right to work states and of the 2 that were not 1 was Alaska which hardly has any people. LOL

I'm sure that the source will be criticized...but she did say use whatever I want

You can agree to that statement, or dismiss it out of hand, or disprove it, or prove it. Your choice.
