Scabs Dear Wobblies, I have a question. In your August edition you have a picture on the front page of Decatur strikers. Your caption below says that they are showing what they think of scabs. A scab is somebody that is trying to feed their family. And you guys seem to think they were shipped in from another planet.
Scabs are the result of unemployment.
You talk about helping workers in the here and now, but for the workers that are screwed most by capitalism you have nothing. And if somebody tries to use government to help the unemployed this is derided as politics. Well, I guess that's more of a statement than a question. I'm just trying to figure this stuff out. Tell me if I'm in error.
