re: #118 Backwoods_Sleuth

I was in Harlan County, Kentucky, when Duke Energy hired the goons to attack the strikers back in the late 60s and early 70s.
The union never really recovered.

And Duke Energy are still monsters to this day.

Grandma Bacon remained a hard core union backer until she passed away in 2000 at the age of 107.

She always said that if it wasn’t for John L Lewis and the CIO she would not have been able to have a decent retirement.
