"Look for the union label, when you are buying that coat, dress or blouse. Remember somewhere, our unions sewing, our wages going to feed the kids, and run the house, but whose complaining? Thanks to the I.L.G. we are paying our way! So always look for, the union label. It says we're able to make it in the U.S.A. !"

Sometime in the 90's I couldn't find the union label anymore, even in second hand stores. Incredibly sad.

I learned what happened in Robert Reich's class on wealth and poverty. Intentional government policy that I believe was intended to break the unions.
