    listen to guys who railed against taxes and “the government” when their income depended on taxes and “the government”.

    Not just their income, but every piece of gear in the place including safety equipment. Literally voting against their own survival.

      Good point. We did have the best equipment available since the county we worked in was one of the richest in the country and had a decent property tax rate. Most of those guys also were anti-union but were members of our union for their own benefit. When it come time to collectively bargain though they wanted to leave it up to the county council because they thought the union had to much power. I’m glad I had retired by then because it would have been hard to have a civil discussion with them about that.
