Answer 6

Most American industrialists did not favor labor unions. Organizers were usually not granted permission to enter the work place to try and organize workers. Workers who supported unions or joined unions or tried to encourage unions were black listed. That meant their names were circulated around the business community and they were not hired if they applied for a job. Often business would hire "goons" who used force and intimidation to break up strikes or to prevent labor organizers from trying to enter plants. Workers who did join unions often lost their jobs. Many of the early unions tried to remain secret until they had enough strength to go public. The government usually supported the business owners in disputes with unions.
