It's amazing to me that the enemies of organized labor fail to recognize its significant role in shaping the vast success of the United States in the twentieth centruy. Those who would dismantle such institutions as unions would do well to remember the words of cultural critic Herbert Croly (1869-1930):

"Unless the great majority of Americans
not only have, but believe they have, a fair
chance, the better American future will
be dangerously compromised."
