True patriots measure themselves not by personal wealth or power but by the degree to which they contribute to the community.
Eric LiuA basic assumption shapes most Americansโ mindset about labor: the belief that the death of unions isnโt my problem because Iโm not in a union. That assumption is wrong. Even if you arenโt a member, your pay is influenced by the strength or weakness of organized labor. The presence of unions sets off a wage race to the top. Their absence sets off a race to the bottom.
