107. officials certainly don't want our children knowing
much about the history of labor struggles in this country.
there are, of course, many reasons that the uber-class wouldn't want americans to have a clear understanding of how or why our economy works (or doesn't work) but i think the lesson, from this history, that they are most afraid of is that worker solidarity changes the balance of power.
when we stand together it becomes harder for that class to abuse us.
