Question

1. Why does Mitchell say that the labor movement is essentially a "moral movement"?

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

I think she (correctly) means that the owners or stockholders were forced not to exploit workers. They below, are the owners.

• They could not underpay them
• They could not provide housing which they over charged them for.
• They could not provide housing that only the rats and mice felt comfortable living in.
• They could not have working conditions what were essentially unsafe by any standard.
• They could not have children working in the mines.

It is only right that owners treat labor with respect and dignity. Those are words employed by morality.
