He busted the police strike, but ultimately not the union, while he was Governor of Massachusetts.
Later on as President he set the stage for the Great Depression (which was made much worse by both Hoover and Roosevelt).
I spent some time this evening going through a number of his speeches and couldn't drag anything out of them that said he'd support Right to Work Laws.
BTW, in a nation where every person is a member of the people's militia and should be provided a weapon through conveniently located armories, or for home storage, or with tax credits so you could select your own, it seems to me that properly operated, the United States would only need a handful of cops ~ not these enormous paramilitary forces that think they ought to be unionized.
It's time for Conservatives to quit worrying about unions and push back until we get a fully armed and trained people's militia that can make Americans safe in America!
Interesting. That's contrary to what I've read. But, if you'll read through my posting history here, I am always eager to explore those things that might be different from what I believe. In most cases, a dissenting view serves to strengthen my convictions because it leads to acquire more data from both sides.
However there are certainly exceptions so I welcome anything you have that shows Coolidge's part in laying the groundwork for the Great Depression.
For the record, I'll acknowledge Hoover's role in it. He had some definite RINO leanings (perhaps arising from his humanitarian work) and I think he meddled too much in the economy. That being said, had a second Hoover term had come to pass (albeit unlikely given the public's mood), there's no doubt that the Great Depression would not have been so "Great" nor so prolonged, both of which are decidedly the fault of Franklin Roosevelt's soft brand of Communism.
Please forgive the off-topic diversion into Hoover since I am indeed most anxious to get your thoughts on Calvin Coolidge.
