Alrighty then.  How 'bout assigning them excerpts of Robert Justin 
Goldstein's Political Repression in Modern America from 1870 to 1976 to show that while 
everyone thinks U.S. workers are a bunch of wimps and sycophants (cause we 
live in such a "free" society, see? so we should be able to organize, right?) 
we're really not.  If we had Canadian labor law we'd have Canadian unionization 
rates.
