Synopsis

This book examines the history of organized labor, a force its author believes to be antagonistic to true economic justice and democracy. The author, a retired industry executive with decades of experience, argues that the American Federation of Labor, through its predatory unionization tactics, benefits primarily its leaders to the detriment of the workers it claims to support. He suggests that the labor movement is built upon a foundation of lies, namely that capitalism inherently oppresses the working class, and that this lie is perpetuated to incite class warfare and unionization. The author believes that this tactic stifles productivity, increases the cost of living, and has recently entered the political arena with the specific purpose of gaining class advantage. He contends that the principles of organized labor, such as strikes, boycotts, and the closed shop, are dishonest and coercive, and that the only hope for a balanced economy lies in decentralizing union power.
