Chapter 27. Trade-unions
1. Does it make any difference in the permanence of an increase of wages brought about by a strike, whether the employer is one of the more successful or one of the less successful in that business?
2. Is there any similarity between the methods of trade-unions and the etiquette of the medical and the legal professions?
3. If you were an officer of a trade-union, would you begin a strike when trade was good or when it was poor?
4. If you can do more work in two hours than in one, can you do more continuously in sixteen consecutive hours than in eight?
5. What determines the maximum study-time for the earnest student?
6. If as much is produced in a general eight-hour day, who benefits?
7. If production is reduced one fourth by shorter hours, is "work made" to that degree for the unemployed?
8. If all day-laborers should agree to work with one hand tied behind them, would their wages go up or down? Would it be good or bad for the whole class of laborers?
