[extropy-chat] labor day

[spike]

In the states we have a holiday which we observed
today called Labor Day.  The term once meant
jobs that required muscle: hoist and tote.  Few of
those exist any more.  Our labor unions have
been in decline for 40 years.  Just this past year
several of them have come apart, with breakaway
subgroups, unions striking with no sympathetic
strikes anywhere else, etc.  I wonder what we
will call Labor Day when most people get no
closer to labor than the Jetsons.
