The Death of the Unions is the Death of the Middle Class

What is going on in Minnesota is the death of the middle class in the United States. If you kill the unions like they are doing there, you are killing what is left of the middle class of America. Do you really want things to go back to the way they were in the 19th century? If not, you must fight for the middle class of the United States by fighting what is going on in Minnesota against the Unions.

However, if union members want their unions to survive all this they must educate their members in how to help the nation survive what is presently going on. If they don't unions will not survive all this and 100 years of men and women dying for their unions to exist at all will be lost forever.

How things were before Unions:

No child Labor Laws. Many children died working 7 days a week and 18 hour days or they were maimed for life.
No safety rules so many children and adults were maimed or killed while working.
Many many died by clubs wielded  by hired thugs hired by business owners to kill those union organizers. Most business owners during that time were not prosecuted for murder or maiming of the union organizers.
This is the real history of unions in the United States. To kill collective bargaining is to end unions entirely. Unless people understand this, they don't understand that to kill collective bargaining is the death of the middle class of the whole U.S.  and the entryway into a 3rd world banana republic nation.

This will return us to the 19th century basically with no workers rights at all and back into a 3rd world nation like we were during the 1800s. If this happens Wild West here we come! 

Unfortunately, if you study history one can see middle class rights and the right to organize unions IS a right worth dying for. All the benefits of creating a middle class came from organizing unions, passing safety laws, child labor laws and increasing wages over the years. The entire success of the middle class from 1930 to 2000 was founded upon the organizing of unions. To go back now to the 1800s is the beginning of the end of our democracy and all our rights as citizens that our ancestors fought and died for.
