Without “fools” storming the parapets you wouldn’t have your fucken laurels that you lazily disregard. Honestly shut up. What you’re saying is offensive to all those who gave their lives fighting corporate oppression.
The immediate results dealt a severe blow to union efforts in southern West Virginia. The United Mine Workers of America lost influence in the coalfields, and it required more than a decade for union strength to return during the New Deal era.
So it didn’t work until we voted in the guy who would establish the New Deal, as I said.
Entire towns fell under the control of mining companies, including rent, goods, and medical care. Families lived in these isolated communities with very little freedom to challenge corporate authority. Efforts to form unions faced eviction, blacklisting, and violence. The United Mine Workers of America worked tirelessly to organize miners across the region, while coal operators employed armed guards and influenced law enforcement to suppress union activity.
Look at all these dumb fools according to you:
