what the difference in our respective positions comes down to is a version of a very old debate about whether the interests of working folk are or are not the same as those of the holders of capital.
i tend to think that they're not the same, particularly when i'm in historian mode.
but it's hard to say why your lat post needed the quote from my earlier one, seaver.
you could have made the point without it, so i'm wondering if you could say more about the way in which it is a response to it.
just curious.
what'll be interesting is the way in which union organization will have to change in order to adapt to a quite different way of organizing production than obtained during the 30s-early 50s, which was the period of ascendancy of what was the american union model.
