With workers, most unions, immigrants who for years have been the backbone and muscle behind the American economy, and many labor families virtually personas non grata, the National Labor Day holiday celebration picnic this year was virtually a secret to most Americans.
Reliable sources tell us if humans protest this turn-of-event, their call or chat will get sent into a doom loop.
