While I concede that the labor movement did, indeed, improve the lives
of some Americans, it can't go unnoticed that the supporting quotes
are at least 40 and most cases 50-100+ years old.
I think, for the astute, there is a realization there to be had.....
Yeah, that today, a strong labor union movement is needed more than
ever in the face of internationalism, corporatism, the exporting of
jobs, and the elimination of hard-fought-for fringe benefits
everywhere in the country. Workers of all sorts are being reduced to
the same sort of chattel they were in the 19th century.
Bull! Next tine you want a job, ask for one from a union member. Don't
bother a business owner or manager.
Poor Lu. Dumb as a post. Again.
