Letter: Kennedy always a friend of working man and woman

To the editor:

In 1935, Congress allowed workers to form unions by signing petitions. Once they had a union, they could bargain with their employer. Once they could bargain, their wages increased.
For decades, wages increased at the same rate that worker productivity increased. The middle class grew. Families' lives got better.

To the editor:
The wrecking crew you support stands with no shame in the ruins of our economy. These free marketeers 30-year effort to extinguish small business and democracy now requires them to sterilize the soil that produced the genius that is America.
