Excuse me? The what?
You know that weekends didn’t exist until unions fought for and won them yeah?
And when was this, exactly?
I mean, you can just google it.
But if you’re American it was 1937.

Right. So, 86 years ago? How does this explain the rampant success of workers unions?
Do you think that’s the only thing unions have achieved in 86 years?
I suggest you do some googling about the union movement internationally, I think you’ll find there have been many successes, some very recently.
You've had plenty of time to elaborate on your claims of the "rampant success of workers unions" and your answer is "Google it"?
No. This is unacceptable. You tell me what you believe is evidence of the "rampant success of workers unions" or concede that there hasn't been anything approaching "rampant success of workers unions"in quite some time.
