Michael Schuls, killed working at a logging company.

They aren’t even old enough to vote.
They are prevented from voting due to age discrimination. There’s nothing physical or mental preventing most young people from voting, only cultural and legal.
Of course under 18 can’t vote in the US, I’m just saying that even those over 18 (~25) who can, don’t. They have the means to influence change and they can’t be bothered to do so, therefore how can we expect even less mature youth to organize something as complex as unified labor?
