In the U.S., there's a not-entirely-mistaken perception that the Democratic Party abandoned organized labor in the Clinton era, starting with AR Labor Reform Bill of 1978 and climaxing in NAFTA. This Democrat "triangulation" - social left + blacks + structured finance - has been the DNC model for a while. According to some. Post-2008, it's obviously got problems with some of its bits. Often missed in this analysis: the intensifying ethnonatalist streak of American labor, and the problematic (if historic?) union involvement of organized crime and its natsec enablers. Theoretically Luciano was on payroll to help stop communism, but patsies have a disturbing tendency to turn into leaders of the organization they are supposed to be infiltrating. Both Hitler and Stalin being good examples of this.
