How Do You Drive Out a Union?
Current rating: 0
13 Dec 2004

Indeed, such a campaign provides an object lesson to all employees in the area, anyone impudent enough to believe that they have rights under the law, that if they dare to join a union (which is still technically legal in this country), they will be crucified and held up as examples of what happens to people who think and act independently of their employers. So much for progress.
