He was right some of the time. The unions mostly did it to themselves. 
When the Amalgamated Poultry Pluckers made a good deal with Acme Poultry 
they didn't care about United Sheep Shearers having to pay more for

destroying it. After all they had their comfortable contracts and the 
Wobblies were rocking the boat.
