Papantonio: Labor Unions Help Save Lives

This interview originally aired on the August 25th, 2013 episode of Ring of Fire on Free Speech TV.

Ring of Fire host Mike Papantonio speaks with attorneys Howard Nations and Mike Burg about how labor unions could have prevented worker deaths and other atrocities all over the world.
