I just looked at some stuff about what life was like before unions.Kids working for nothing at 6 years old and talking about slaves working in textile mills in Alabama and the whole South in 1910.Women that looked like 60 at 30 years old having 4 kids working with them in the same factory to get one paycheck that would barely feed them.Yeah and thats just less than 100 years ago.It was 1938 I think before the government passed child labor laws that unions and just concerned people had been trying to pass since the 1800s.Europe was just as bad maybe worse. Anybody who can read can learn this stuff.We are being lied to every day.Sure things are better now but I dont see anybody doing anything to keep things that way.Actually all I see is things getting set up to get worse,maybe lots worse than they are now.I sometimes feel that unions have done some wrong in the last 30 years,yet I am beginning to wonder if its not company people that infiltrated the unions to make them appear to be worse than they are.Lots of things about what has happened to our country are lied about all the time.With the record of industry in the past,nobody can trust them to run it fair to the workers.Plus the unions had them so well at one time they probably did infiltrate the unions to destroy them.I have seen some things that didnt make sense to me when I was in a union but it doesnt justify throwing them all in the trash.Some of the stuff they do is totally necessary and there are some people that can tear up a crowbar in a sandbox no matter how easy the job is.Instead of getting rid of the unions they need to be kept in place but modernized to where they work.That might mean some things would need to have government oversight.Otherwise we are heading right back to the world as it was before unions,a miserable place for working people.

In our previous article we discussed capscrews, bolts, and nuts along with their relative hardness and thread sizes. In this segment we will finish up on our fasteners and then work with ways to keep them from loosening up in the field. Capscrews, bolts and nuts are not the only means of holding two parts together.
