Thank you, Heather, for laying everything out regarding the railroad unions, workers, and management. I thought unions were to protect the people they serve. Seems the workers are treated like slaves. I hear the strict schedules are burning people out. I, for one, have never blamed the workers.

She doesn’t lay “everything” out. People of principle, knowledge and good will disagree with the picture she draws, like Senator and law professor Elizabeth Warren.
Marlene, sorry if I sounded snappish.--I check these columns very early in the a.m., before I get my coffee! But I do think that Professor Richardson, whom I respect and like, tells the stories as she sees them, like all historians do. I'm one too. In this particular case, she doesn't see it as some others I also respect do, like Senator Warren and (Prof.) Bob Reich and Elie Mystal.
I respect the people you mentioned, as well. And it is important to get different perspectives, Mary. After all, there is chocolate and vanilla ice cream or strawberry, etc. it is important that we are given all sides so we can important decisions.

The Unions are trying to protect the workers. At least 4 of them are! But laws are stacked against them.

Sorry if I wasn’t precise.
