Jack London wrote 'People of the Abyss' in 1902. It's worth reading because it paints a picture of what life would be like for working people if Leighton and Crozier ever get their way.Spartacus wrote:You can never overuse this.
NO strike breakers!After God had finished the rattlesnake, the toad, and the vampire, he had some awful substance left with which he made a scab.
A scab is a two-legged animal with a corkscrew soul, a water brain, a combination backbone of jelly and glue.
Where others have hearts, he carries a tumor of rotten principles.
When a scab comes down the street, men turn their backs and angels weep in heaven, and the devil shuts the gates of hell to keep him out.
No man (or woman) has a right to scab so long as there is a pool of water to drown his carcass in, or a rope long enough to hang his body with.
Judas was a gentleman compared with a scab. For betraying his master, he had character enough to hang himself. A scab has not.
Esau sold his birthright for a mess of pottage.
Judas sold his Savior for thirty pieces of silver.
Benedict Arnold sold his country for a promise of a commision in the british army.
The scab sells his birthright, country, his wife, his children and his fellowmen for an unfulfilled promise from his employer.
Esau was a traitor to himself; Judas was a traitor to his God; Benedict Arnold was a traitor to his country.
A scab is a traitor to his God, his country, his family and his class.

I can understand your compassion for some. In my unit ..... I have explained the long-term effect of our fight & even the really 'needy' cases are supporting our Union! Have compassion ..... my friend ..... It shows that you are a caring person! At the end of the day nobody wants to be associated with the 'scab' who is just sitting back reaping the rewards of our battle! All these pitiful wretches ..... have to live with their conscience. THAT is their greatest punishment! The strike breakers at our office are new entrants being 'leaned upon' & four others who are just ingraciating themselves with the screws & smugly letting others fight for them. We still have a 90% support for the Union & for that I am proud! My members are resentful about the lack of information ..... I shall be dealing with that WHEN the battle is won. Again I will say ..... had it not been for this site & the information & shared experiences ..... my battle would have been hopeless. Well done RMC & I will be eternally grateful to ..... & proud of ..... ALL of you. :lfo :cfoblackadder wrote:with the feeling of my fellow workers me finks im to soft
