Casual reminder that the Dodgers mega team (including the highest payroll ever with 3 MVPs/WS MVPs, multiple CY Youngs, the top international hitting/pitching prospects) was paid for by a financial company owned by the (((Guggenheim))) family that made its money from treating workers like slaves around the world

Strike-breaking in Perth Amboy (1912): When workers at a Guggenheim mine went on strike, the family used strikebreakers, and four strikers were shot during the confrontation.
Evictions in Alaska (1916): The Guggenheims evicted striking miners from their bunkhouses and left them in sub-freezing temperatures over poor conditions and low wages.
Profiteering during World War I: During the war, the Guggenheims were criticized for profiting outrageously from metal prices until President Woodrow Wilson intervened. At the same time, working conditions in some mines were likened to "slave labor".
Operations in the Belgian Congo: Through companies like the American Congo Company and the Intercontinental Rubber Company, the Guggenheims were involved in resource extraction in the Belgian Congo, a colonial project known for its brutal and exploitative treatment of Africans.

Evictions in Alaska (1916): The Guggenheims evicted striking miners from their bunkhouses and left them in sub-freezing temperatures (30 below 0) over poor conditions and low wages.

he Guggenheim family, like many other industrial magnates of the time, was known for their harsh treatment of labor.

Wage Exploitation:

The Guggenheims paid their miners pennies per day, while they profited immensely from the minerals extracted.

They often paid workers in company scrip, a form of currency that could only be spent in company stores, effectively trapping workers in a cycle of poverty.

Terrible Working Conditions:

Miners worked in unsafe conditions, with insufficient ventilation, dangerous equipment, and a high risk of fatal accidents.

There were frequent cave-ins, explosions, and other deadly occurrences. Despite the risk, the Guggenheims rarely invested in improving safety measures.

Long Hours:

Workers, including immigrant laborers, were often forced to work 12-16 hours a day, six or seven days a week, in order to meet production quotas.

Strikebreaking and Violence:

When miners tried to organize for better conditions or attempted to strike for higher wages, the Guggenheim family responded with brutal force.

They used private militias and armed guards to intimidate, attack, and even kill striking workers. The most infamous example of this occurred during the 1914 Ludlow Massacre in Colorado, which involved the Colorado Fuel and Iron Company (owned by John D. Rockefeller), but similar tactics were employed by the Guggenheims as well.
