Overview
The existence of this book testifies to a reversal of my own thinking. I began my adult life as a dedicated democratic socialist and a firm believer in the AFL- CIO and spent ten years working for the teachers' union in New York City.Editorials

A former director of the Young People's Socialist League and former representative for the United Federation of Teachers criticizes today's American labor movement as reactionary leftism that opposes American values and interests. He bemoans the transition of labor from an integral part of American civil society to a left-wing interest group, in chapters on the philosophy of the movement, the defeat of communism, the radicalization of labor's economic policy, and the struggle against free trade.
