Quote #17 on Economic Struggle Quotes >> Workers and The Union
“...the organizations of the miners and railway men, iron workers, and the like were not predatory movements to trespass on the rights of employers, but were a measure of self-defense forced on the men who saw their rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness being taken away one by one.”
