The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals sided with SpaceX earlier this week, ruling that the National Labor Relations Board’s current structure is unconstitutional. The decision will keep the agency hamstrung until the case makes its way to the Supreme Court.

          Thanks for sharing, I didn’t know about him. For anyone else reading this look up the Coal Wars and the Homestead Strike.

          Labor has always had to kill, die, and fight against Capital for the rights we have today. They don’t really teach these things in school (I think I learned about the Pinkertons in AP US History) because it would give Labor too much cultural power, but it’s crucial for US citizens (and anyone really) to understand what it has taken to get to where we are.
