4 0
In the history of America's trade and labor unions, the most famous union remains the American Federation of Labor<span> (</span>AFL<span>), founded in 1886 by Samuel Gompers. At its pinnacle, the </span>AFL<span> had approximately 1.4 million members.

</span><span>Because the union did not attempt to organize unskilled workers, it made few gains among new workers during the 1920s, when much of the growth of the economy took place in mass-production industries such as automobiles, rubber, chemicals, and utilities.

Which is an example of a conservative view of government?
makkiz [27]
I say Israel - and I hope this is taken in an utterly nonpartisan way, which takes absolutely no position vis-a-vis the legitimacy of either conservatism or the Israeli state. I just think some core aspects of Israeli government and society are in line with mainstream US conservatism: a free-market liberal democracy of course, but with formal religious-ethnic affiliation, compulsory military service with training on firearms (and licensing to possess same) for all citizens, and a generally hawkish stance on questions of military and defense. They are also highly security-oriented, some would say in a much more effective way than the US government, and its security apparatus employs profiling techniques which almost undoubtedly have a racial component (<span>and </span><span>conservatives would no doubt want to insist that these two facts are directly related). I believe that taxation rates are roughly on par with that in the US, if not a bit less... though not nearly as low as Switzerland. </span>
