What Supports the Poor and Working Class?

There is something to be said for the content of the meme here, but only if you’re unwilling to look around and consider different ideas (see below, sorry about the typo).

Before labor unions came along, there were eight-year-old kids working 60-hour work weeks mining coal.

Also, environmental and safety restrictions virtually never come from the private sector.  Without not-for-profit entities, we’d have cars without seatbelts that get 12 miles to the gallon, unregulated coal plants, and skies like the one shown here.
