Amazing Writeup of the Importance of the UAW
This is one of the best write-ups I've ever read of the importance of the UAW. I've been reading left history since I was 13 or 14, so it's easy for me to forget that this stuff isn't at the back of everyone's minds when they encounter the world we live in today. But the UAW is the equivalent in reality to what FDR was in myth. We wouldn't even have the dull vestiges of a decent society without them. So next time you feel like shit-talking the overpaid line workers at GM (cause god knows how dare line workers expect to make a decent living in return for throwing their lives away for a fucking boss and an assembly machine) read this and think it over again.
