I have family that would claim they are pro-labor, keyword claim. One family member was in a union for his entire working career. Him and his spouse vote conservative (afaik) everytime. I’ve tried to explain that they are voting against what helped them get to the point they are at currently but they just can’t see it. It has helped some that now I’m in a union but even when agreeing with me that corporations only care about profits and will cut you and your benefits the first chance they get, they will still side with R. It’s crazy! We even had an interesting conversation about trickle down economics and how it hasn’t worled or trickled down at all. I was surprised they agreed with me on that.

Dang, that sucks. It was a good place to find stuff.

This is an excellent story. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I think I saw another comment mention it but after you finish this, you must read (or listen to) “Endurance” by Alfred Lansing. The narration was excellent. I borrowed the audiobook from libby and it was such an amazing story!
