Hey Ironglow, if you remeber, we didnt have unions back in the 20, and 30, and look where that got the working man. No benefits, and low wages, that he couldnt raise a family on. Up here in Bartlesvile Okla, there is the museuem of Frank Phillips, (oil typcoon, of the 20, 30 and 40, now deceased). That has several checks, totallying 421 million dollars written to him in one day
. That was back in the depression
.
People (the workers of the same period) when they had a job, made $1.00 per day.
Remember the old saying (the rich get richer, and the poor get poorer). Well thats what happenes when you dont have a union .
There is an excellent movie coming out, or I should say is already out called the Cinderalla man, true story about a struggling boxer in the depression. The back ground of the movie should open your eyes as to what it would be like without any unions.
God Bless the unions.
