"Silence never won rights. They are not handed down from above; they are forced by pressures from below." -Roger Baldwin
Conclusion
Overall, we learned a lot while making this website. One thing we learned was that labor unions were neither completely good nor completely bad. Before the unions, pay was about $2-$3 a day and you worked 14-16 hours a day. The unions increased pay for workers, improved their conditions, and increase their benefits, but his came at a cost. The companies had to make more money by either firing employees or increasing their prices. They would form trusts to increase the prices.
