The collapse of the National Labor Union occurred during the Panic of 1873. <u>Four (4) years</u> after William Sylvis's passing in 1869, it started to fall apart.

William H. Sylvis, an ironworker with the goal of uniting all skilled and unskilled workers in the country, founded and served as the leader of this first labor union in 1866. It demanded an 8-hour workday, and by 1868, the union had grown to 640,000 members!

The union sought to address the following labor-related issues:

  • lower pay
  • lengthy hours
  • repetitive work
  • using children
  • unsafe work environment
  • minimal interaction with owners
  • wished to implement a 5-day work week.
  • wished to establish laws protecting workers' rights and dignity

Why do you feel checks and balances( as in government wise) are important?
ICE Princess25 [194]
If checks and balances didn't exist, there would be nothing stopping a group i.e. the president, from making whatever laws they wanted.
In essence, if there are no checks and balances, government is no longer a democracy because nothing prevents the group in power from doing what they want. For example, a president that wasn't checked by the opposition party could pass a law saying that they are legally allowed to be president until they die, and nobody would stop them.
