13. In the 1800s, when there was a mine collapse, most owners wanted to know how many mules were lost.

Mules cost money to replace. Desperate people, children, came walking up for free, worked for starvation wages.

IWW tried to get us out of that, but there were easier ways. Appears they mostly lead back to the way things used to be, however.

Mayre we will start fighting again, but I doubt it.
