You never went to the link. If you looked at the right of the page you would have seen Germany's Nazis influence with in America's labor unions during the 1930's and 40's.

Would you have excepted Wikipedia as a reliable source ? :lamo

Yeah, I did go to the link, and found it to be hogwash.

Wikipedia has never been a 100% reliable source of information, but the corruption and bias have reached crisis levels in the past few years, so much so that committed editors have abandoned it.

It was a great project that hit the ground running but now there are so many spindoctors, trolls, and corporate interests hijacking the content that it should be taken with a grain of salt.

ALWAYS confirm and re-confirm information that you read on Wikipedia, using external sources.
