This is a Christmas song, and I like many can't figure out how to embed this in my blog so it will be in my comment. A little background first...
As stated before, I am a socialist, not afraid to admit it. It's not about government control and the bullshit that conservative talk radio accuse the current president of. Socialism is about workers, workers rights/self ownership and representation for labor by the government.
This song does relate TRUE story. It's important to me because it concerns poor workers on strike and Italians working in an area with very few italians, and were therefore hated...
The song is written and sung by Woody Guthrie...
Merry Christmas...
