Answer: Poor working conditions, repression by police, violence by hired bandits.

Explanation:

  • During the Great Depression, there was a significant strike in the automotive industry. In addition to the daily hazards at work, accompanied by poor conditions, workers at times when they would rebel against such a condition suffered repression from police and bandits who often carried out violence against strikers. For many unions, and active involvement in them could mean the end of the business, so many business owners have made every effort to end unions or reduce their influence. During this period, the automaker, General Motors, actually experienced sales advances thanks to its aggressive reactions to the Great Depression.
  • When the economy began to spiral out of control, GM cut prices, cut production of some more expensive models, and laid off vast amounts of labor. GM maintained its hold on the car market at the expense of its workers. After the layoffs of thousands, she employed many backward but did not consider the senior position and paid lower wages than before. Such circumstances have led to the dissatisfaction of many employees. There was a massive strike in the hour when workers wanted to abolish their democratic rights at all costs, organizing unions. This strike is one of the most famous in American history. The attack reduced the unification of the automobile industry in the united states, thereby improving the position of workers.
