Quote #2 on Economic Struggle Quotes >> Workers and Union Bureaucracy

“...the stifling of rank-and-file democracy in the late 1930s, the bureaucratization of major unions during World War II, the elimination of radical oppositions and unions from 1946 to 1955, and the political subordination of U.S. unions to the Democratic Party have all worked to undermine the ability of labor unions to extend themselves nationally and to redress the unfavorable balance of class forces.”
