Business History
1. When you think about all the benefits we have received
in our jobs, we don?t realize how lucky we are. We have to
thank all of the labor leaders who spent most of their time
and effort in order for us to have the luxury to work in a
safe environment, work reasonable hours, and receive a fair
paycheck. Two labor leaders I will talk about is George
Meanly and Walter Rather. George mean as born in New York
City around 1894 and died around 1979. Walter Rather was
born on September 1, 1907 in Wheeling, West Virginia. Both
were great labor leaders who achieved several goals for
laborers. Rather worked to achieve goals for workers as
well as achieving national goals to try and help the
country. Meanly mostly worked to help the country. I will
compare and contrast five of their major goals and explain
who had the best goals for America.
Reuthers first major goal was to have a National system
of healthcare. Reuther grew up from a poor family so they
probably didn?t have any kind of healthcare. He believed
that everyone, no matter what their status, should be
provided with some type of healthcare in which they can be
taken care of in any type
