“The US government seized dozens if not hundreds of US companies during WWII.”
jjotto.
Knew this type of thing happened. This NYT article made me curious on the stats of the time. Do you have any further examples or links or book titles to aid me?
My typical google tactics seem to come up zip to the point I am wondering if this NLRB era in our history is being “censored for our own protection”.
thx
