you've raised a very important point . Engels observation was of a fast
industrialising Europe fueled by the cheap labour of men women and
children. We started to move away from the exploitation of women and
children, humane laws were enacted. We have since been fighting for the
working man, safety on the job, fair wages, unionisation. We've seen the
break up of the unions and a weakening of labour laws. Women have been
encouraged to find fulfillment in the work place, why, because they're
cheaper. What is the one problem with employing women, pregnancy and
children. You think you are exercising control ? We are forced to accept
death and injury in the workplace, lives becoming statistics and now we
are encouraging the view that abortion is nothing .
The degradation of the worker's life is complete.
