[QUOTE="Brother Joe, post: 968212, member: 41239"] It's a cold world no matter what season it is. It is sad that the fascists have been allowed to frame the debate. It's sad that ignorance is so prevalent. In fact, the fight for the 8 hour work day in 1886 was being fought for by Anarchist. That being said I stand with anyone fighting for the 8 hour day. Part-timers are struggling to get their 3 1/2 hour guarantee while drivers have to jump through hoops for 8 hour & 9.5 requests. We had to strike in 97 to bump it up from 3 to 3 1/2. We are still struggling for the 8 hour day. Chicago Teamsters as well as other unions were in the street in Chicago. I marched in the streets in a unpermitted feeder march with anarchist shutting down the streets to the chagrin of the police. I then marched with my Brother & Sister Teamsters. There is no change without struggle, so the struggle for the 8 hour day continues. Red-baiting is still alive & well, not much has changed since 1886 i see. So the struggle for blue skies continues [/QUOTE]
