Yes, I remember this, I was quite yong then. The USPS was on the verge of striking (my parents and many relatives worked there) and there were deeply worried (terrified) about this. The firing stopped that strike from happening. But yet again these union members voted for Reagan in 1984.
I believe this was the start of union busting trend.

- hindsightbias 6y agoThere is a term - Reagan Democrats. Many of whom were/are union workers. And a lot of these people still bleat that the party left them behind in the 90s. I wonder why.
