Ed,
However, now that the Chinese workers are into this I think we'll find that
from now onwards their strikes will be far more violent than anything
America has experienced. Highly disciplined societies have a way of really
letting rip when they have occasion to. Think of Germany in the 1930s or
the Japanese in the 1950s.

and American capitalism may be two very different systems, but under both,
workers assert their rights at their peril.â
