    State organs support labor only when labor is organized well enough to promise pain if not appeased.

    Give credit to whom it is due, the brave workers and their allies who stand on the line.

      I tend to agree, which is why I am heartened by their recent behaviors. It also takes workers who are informed and brave. I actively try to make sure my stepdaughter is at least informed enough to know when to call me.

        Staying informed is not an individual activity.

        Resilience against misinformation and ignorance derives from mutual education and common trust within an organization.
