> I was reading a story about the decisions made by miners in UP Michigan in 1912. You know what they did when shit sucked? They walked and did something else for 2 years. They let the equipment rot with intent going Jesus, or what the miners in the Appalachians did in 1912. After the mining company refused to deal with a unionized workforce, they were replaced by armed guards. The miners got kicked out of there housing, etc. So in response, the miners formed a militia and went to war with the company, like literal war with guns. They got steamrolled by the state guard. But eventually that got them to negotiate a 9 hour workday. Then they did it again 10 years later, except that time they got steamrolled by the US military, and then the feds threw hundreds in prison for treason.
