Yeah, he abolished all labor unions. That ain't very social.

So did the Soviets in Poland. Does that mean they weren't socialists?

Well, if their party was called the "Soviet Socialist party", and they abolished unions right after they seized power, they sure would be big meanies, wouldn't they?

...or typical socialists. You're intentionally avoiding the issue, Walt. Abolishing labor unions does not make one anti-socialist, and in fact historical socialists are very prone to abolishing labor unions.
