Answer:

<h2>b. He had supported the union in previous matters.</h2>

Explanation:

During the 1980 campaign for the presidency, candidate Ronald Reagan had endorsed the Professional Air Traffic Controllers Organization (PATCO), which was the air traffic controllers union. As a candidate in the campaign, Reagan had voiced his support for the union's desire for better working conditions. But when the PATCO workers went on strike in 1981, as President of the United States, Reagan had a different opinion. He called the strike illegal and a threat to national safety. He fired more than 11,000 workers who refused his order to return to work, and federal judges set $1 million per day fines against the union as long as the strike persisted.

Use the excerpt from Eugene Debs's "How I Became a Socialist" to answer the question.

zhenek [66]

This excerpt shows how Debs has endured and shared the harsh working conditions of laborers (D.).

Many verbal groups indicate his physical involvement in the working people's daily life and how it affected him emotionally:

"I had ... been stung by the exposure ... of the rail;"
"I was with the boys ... at the broken engine's side;"
"helped to bear;"
"feel the burden."

As for the harsh working conditions, they are described by the following nouns and adjectives:

"hardship;"
"weary;"
"bruised and bleeding bodies;"
"burden."

We know that they are laborers and not, for example, business owners, because their work is very manual. Besides, the term "working class" appears in the text, as well as "Proletaire" which is borrowed from French and means "belonging to the lower social classes."
