American labor unions aren't American in origin at all. The concept of labor unions was imported from Germany, via socialists and Marxists with its roots in the communist manifesto over 100 years ago. American Labor Union bosses continue to manipulate their workers without input from their members often with political agendas 180 degrees different from their paying members.
