text: Exiled -- Isn't that exactly what UNIONS do?  ===
  Those nonunion workers today who are paid decently benefit from the stands taken and battles fought by their grandparents/great-granparents against lethal, life-shortening working conditions, and for  living wages. Workers joined together and fought for  worker rights - frequently against corporation-controlled government, starving "scabs", police, judges, well-paid corporate lawyers, and hired corporation "muscle" .. They created the blue collar middle class that many anti-union posters here belong to, and that we have heard so much lamenting about.
