nineteen thirty-five
the american uh...
automobile manufacturers association also knows the automobile manufacturers
association who is a lobbying group of front group
for the car manufacturers
that ironically brought us mit romney
they handed the phrase right to work for the refers to uh...
nineteen thirty-five
now this is
this is very similar
and i well i give credit where credit's due in marking miss
uh... the uh... labor desk over at and s f_w_ corp dot com
uh... just
has written this absolutely brilliant piece
you hate right-to-work laws more than you know here's why
and uh... it's just it splits a goldmine of
factories and determine it's just it's brilliantly written
highly recommended

ronnie's dad george
was the governor of the state that i was growing up in michigan
when i was a kid
and he got there for me in the present of a_n_c_ american motors corporation
he got to be the president of the motors corporation because he'd been the had
lot isd for the automobile manufacturers association starting in nineteen thirty
nine
but four years earlier the a m a
the american politics in the automobile manufacturers association
had published a
they they would ratchet down the wagner act
this was uh... f_d_r_'s
legislation that adn established the rights of workers
to form a union
and once they had forms that union by majority voted democratic institution
much much like you don't want states join the union you had to have a
majority vote babies coming
it well once they had created that union
then everybody who was benefiting from the work of that union
had to pay dues to the unit
just makes sense
psych you know if if you join the chamber of commerce
they are good and you'd expect the benefits of joining the chamber of
commerce
and there are many to big companies in small companies to even local companies
you campbell better pay your dues are they kicked out
this was eat this this really goes back
if you take this back in history
secondary history
the the the guy who was really behind all this
gray markings is a fellow by the name of vance muse
and usc
and
in talking about the wagner act nineteen thirty-five double law that established
the right to unionize in the united states and cuba ninety four the wagner
act unionization united states was in single digits
very very few
and managing forty seven was thirty five percent of american workers
we were by the way behind it
most of europe
on this
i mean weighted
but vance views
wrote
business founder of the right to work in tow they were campaigns
response to the wagner act
and this was the real core of this thing
was this racist orient
the original right-to-work laws
were in in large part you don't just
the i they were they were
they were there was a racist genesis to these things and he wrote from now on
white women and white men will be forced into organizations with black black
african heaps whom they will have to call brother or lose their jobs
that was the response it basically this coalition of uh... freeing you
southerners
misuses a sky from texas who
engineered basically a racist takeover
or you know it within the democratic party that the old belief put the
democratic party republican is the original southern strategy
down south
you you look at the senate g_o_p_ tonight
he was until nineteen thirty
eight
the challange or was outlawed in its debts
sprinkler confided
we passed child labor laws back in nineteen teens aspirin court knocked him
down said there are violation the right to contract
so again we were behind the rest of the civilized world
but you don't go back to nineteen thirteen
the colorado d_a_x_ either the rockefeller family owned innocent minds
in colorado the ludlow minds
and there was just it was absolutely necessary there there was another one
business in west virginia
plans are this was in colorado
as markings rights be brought a nominee details like how rockefeller's private
armed goons patrolled the miners miserable tent cities in an armored car
with a mounted machine guns spring tension terrorizing the strikers
who demanded radical concessions from the company
such as quote enforcement of colorado's laws
if this is what the workers wanted
they wanted the hour work day
they wanted eat they are going to pay for the time that they actually worked
is actually there was this
tent city and they were being sprayed with with bullets periodically by the by
the the duan's had been hired by the rockefeller family
so they'd dug trenches inside the tents so that they can get a little bullets
that this was the mood the youtube miners and their families
there at their their wives and kids
so when they dug those trenches and look like they were going to be in for the
long haul
the colorado national guardsmen
poured kerosene on the tent set on fire
and kill people zicam running out
we know that at least a dozen children keep were killed
and and multiple tens of workers scores of workers and their wives killed
and hundreds of minors old what we were arrested
tears and i thought it was like america before nineteen thirty five
