...it isn't mentioned much today but only a few years ago Americans involved in union organizing were hauled into courts and beaten by police for merely distributing leaflets calling on workers to organize for better pay and fair treatment. They had no thought to overthrow the government but still, by forcing employers to pay decent wages they were treated as enemies of the state...and our nationalists complain that they were "persecuted" in Iraq when their calls to "give us back our land" and "this government stole the land from us" resulted in arrest.

Mind you, we're comparing the "bastion of democracy" with what everyone agrees was a terrible dictatorship.

That workers in this country has lost tremendous ground and are abused and exploited is no longer news because the workers themselves seem to encourage the very processes that hold them down.

American workers once fought for better treatment with the result that America had the greatest middle class of any country and it was the middle class that grew to power and wealth and raised the standard of living for all...which is what conservative now claim THEY are doing by shifting the wealth to the upper classes....this way we've become the servants and recipients of the generosity and charity of the wealthy, where before we EARNED our benefits through not only hard work but collective bargaining, unions and labor activism...now we're all getting hand-outs..a new kind of socialiam...
