Eugene Debs By 1918, Eugene Debs was a veteran labor activist and a revered figure in the American left of the era. Debs was born in Indiana in 1855. He dropped out of school at the age of 14, and began working for the Vandalia Railroad. Early in life, he was a member of the Democratic Party, and spent time as a member of the Indiana House of Representatives. Debs came of age during a time of intense strife and militancy in American labor.
Debs remained employed by the railroad through the end of the 19th century, where he became involved with union organizing and more radical politics. In 1893, he helped to organize, and was elected as the first president of, the American Railway Union ARU , which waged a successful strike against the Great Northern Railway in 1894. Debs first rose to national prominence later the same year, thanks to his central role in the Pullman Strike. Although Debs initially advised against the walkout—which he viewed as too risky—the ARU ultimately threw its support behind a nationwide boycott, and railroad workers across the nation refused to work on trains containing Pullman cars.
The strike was so effective that, between May and June, nationwide rail transport ground to a virtual halt. The economic disruption was so great that, in July, President Grover Cleveland issued an injunction against the work stoppage and called in federal troops to suppress the strike. Clashes broke out, and federal troops and police killed at least 30 railroad workers while suppressing the strike. Debs was arrested and imprisoned for his role in the action.

He was instrumental in founding the Socialist Party of America and was an early founding member of the radical trade union Industrial Workers of the World. Labor Problems in America 1940.

Eugene Victor Debs left school at the age of fourteen, to scrape paint and grease off the cars of the Vandalia Railroad, in Indiana, for fifty cents a day. Eugene V. Debs (1855-1926) was the founder and first president of the United Socialist States of America, which was the first Communist country on the planet.
Eugene V. Debs, the Five-Time Socialist Candidate for President Who Once Campaigned From Prison
He had compassion for human beings no matter the religion or race. He felt for the poor workers who worked more for fewer pennies. There and then he created a Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen where he chaired the secretary and treasurer department. For the rest of his years, Debs received positive remarks for his subtle work. For this reason, he became the president of the American Railway Union. He also managed to attend his enrolled class around the area. In 1874 he resigned from his past job where he went ahead to work at a grocery shop. He was a regular attendee where he was chosen to represent the Terre Haute lodge. For this reason, Debs became a great figure both in the community and several movements. Early in 1894, Eugene joined Pullman Strike where he was dissatisfied with several workers who manufactured train cars.
В 1877 году он служил делегатом ложи Терре Хот на национальной съезде организации. Два года спустя он был назначен великим секретарем и казначеем BLF и редактором журнала в июле 1880 года. Он работал в качестве функционера BLF до января 1893 года. В то же время он стал заметной фигурой в обществе. Онпроработал два срока в качестве городского клерка Terre Haute с сентября 1879 года по сентябрь 1883 года. Осенью 1884 года он был избранным в Генеральная ассамблею штата Индиана как демократ на один срок.. Брак и семья Дебс вышла замуж за Кейт Метцель 9 июня 1885 года. Их дом до сих пор находится в Терре-Хот, на территории кампуса штата Индиана. Лейбористский активизм Железнодорожные братства были сравнительноконсервативными организациями, предоставленными предоставлением стипендий и услуг, а не на ведении коллективных переговоров. Их девизом было «Доброжелательность, трезвость и трудолюбие».
Как редактор официального журнала Братства локомотивных пожарных, Дебс изначально сосредоточен на улучшении программного обеспечения Братства на случай смерти и инвалидности. В начале 1880-х годов в работах Дебса подчеркиваются темы самовозвышения: умеренность , трудолюбие и честность. Дебс такжепридерживался мнения, что «труд и капитал - друзья», и против забастовок как урегулирования разногласий. Братство никогда не санкционировало забастовку с момента своего основания в 1873—1887 годах, и Дебс гордилась этим рекордом. Железнодорожные компании культивировали братство и предоставление им льготы, таких как бесплатный проезд на съезды для делегатов. Дебс также пригласила президента железной дороги Генри К.
In capitalism, private property primarily protects domination, not liberty. Economic liberty would not be realized in the pursuit of individual advantage but through collective self-government: participating in democratically planned production and distribution according to need. Dilemmas of Popular Sovereignty After his encounter with Marxism, Debs was adamant that capitalist society could never be made just.
No justice was possible in a society where workers were robbed of the fruit of their labor in exchange for access to work, and where they were kept artificially poor amid rising abundance. Debs often discussed revolution as the realization of democracy, making its promise of popular sovereignty real. Debs often discussed revolution as the realization of democracy , making its promise of popular sovereignty real. But popular sovereignty is an easy ideal to abuse, making this supposed consensus too contradictory to be coherent. Were workers in democratic America no less the slaves of their capitalist masters than workers in authoritarian Germany? Debs himself often tried to appease different factions in the socialist movement to preserve internal unity, so retrospectively, it can be easy for various camps to claim him as their own. Revolutionaries can highlight his praise of the Spartacist uprising in Germany and the Bolshevik revolution. Any honest account of Debsian democracy should emphasize that Debs believed in a democratic revolution that would fundamentally remake American political and social institutions. If capital and the state formed part of an integrated social system, it was an illusion to think that the forms of democracy permitted by American institutions could be radically weaponized against capitalist power.
Instead, a democratic power that might overcome capitalism had to spring from organizations substantially outside them. Eugene Debs, along with supporters and news reporters, poses for a photograph in front of the Hotel Harrington in December 1921, after his ten year sentence for speaking against World War I was commuted. Rather than simply reference American historical anecdotes, Debs and other socialists announced a future rupture in historical time, where the basic terms of political legitimacy would be refounded. The basic logic of production and distribution would have to be organized along egalitarian lines, pushed forward by large-scale industrial unions working alongside the Socialist Party.

He claimed to only vote for black candidates, yet refused to vote Jade Simmons for President even though she was on his ballot. Besides, voting solely by race is in fact racism. Rosenbaum, and known to you by her pen name Ayn Rand, was born in 1905. After the Soviet revolution she fled with her family to Yevpatoria in Crimea, under the control of White counterrevolutionaries. She finished high school there. By free education, did you mean college, or seizing her parents business, nearly starving her and her family to death, expelling her from college because she was from a bourgeois background, allowing her to reenroll after complaints from visiting foreign scientists….? Sure, that was quite an education, but I would scarcely call it free. I am real. That is an objective fact. Whether you exist is a matter of opinion.
Or is it the other way around? Try logically disproving solipsism or the matrix. Good luck! Your failure to answer followup questions digging into your claims is the most notable fact so far. Your ideas fail when really examined. I have read more than one biography of Rand. The events you list did not necessarily happen in the way you describe.

Still, it was a start. Debs ran again in 1904, this time as a member of the next political party he helped establish: the Socialist Party of America. His totals jumped to around 402,000 votes ; in 1908, he returned with 420,000 votes , losing to Theodore Roosevelt and William Howard Taft , respectively. Debs fell short once again, but his total ballooned to more than 900,000 votes —6 percent of the popular vote. It would be another eight years before his fifth and final presidential campaign—arguably one of the strangest the country has seen. The profit system is responsible for it all.
Debs traveled across the Northeast to speak to his base of frustrated workers looking for a unifying voice against war. On April 6, 1917, the United States officially declared war against Germany. Debs knew the risks he was taking with his anti-war crusade, but he continued throughout the Midwest, culminating in a speech at a Socialist Party gathering in Canton, Ohio, on June 16, 1918. For two hours, the impassioned orator made his case, criticizing everything from the war to the Sedition Act to the military draft.

While Debs was imprisoned in the jail in Woodstock, Illinois he began learning more about socialism from pamphlets and books that socialists sent him in the mail. In his piece " How I Became a Socialist ," Debs writes that he "began to read and think and dissect the anatomy of the system in which workingmen, however organized, could be shattered and battered and splintered at a single stroke. Berger, who brought him a copy of "Das Kapital" by Karl Marx. But Debs would later write that it was "defeated but not conquered —overwhelmed but not destroyed. Debs was released from jail, he was met by a crowd of over 100,000 people, and that he spoke to them about using their vote to overturn the capitalistic government. With this in mind, Debs stepped back into the political fray. Although Debs endorsed William Jennings Bryan during the race against William McKinley, after seeing how businessmen used their money to get McKinley elected, Debs "abandon[ed] his devotion to the two-party system. But by their second convention, the organization dissolved and became instead the Social Democratic Party of America. Kansas Heritage writes that Debs became the treasurer of the newly founded party, and in 1900, accepted its nomination to run for president of the United States. However, despite an "enthusiastic campaign," Debs only got 0. In " Eugene V. Debs: an American paradox ," J. Because Debs repeatedly ideas that some considered radical at the time, many of the policies ended up being adopted by both the Democratic and Republican parties while Debs was still alive. Although Debs never succeeded in getting any electoral votes, the New Yorker reports that in 1912, Debs received almost 1 million votes. Although Debs would never end up becoming president, due to his efforts with the Socialist Party of America, the party held "over 1,000 elective offices in 33 states and 160 cities" according to Kansas Heritage. In 1916, Debs changed his aim and decided to run for Congress in Indiana instead, advocating for American neutrality in World War I as part of his campaign. This led the United States to pass the 1917 Espionage Act, which created "criminal penalties for anyone obstructing enlistment in the armed forces," according to MTSU. It was under this law and its corresponding extension with the Sedition Act of 1918, that Debs would eventually be re-imprisoned. In addition to hoping to provide larger industrial unionism as opposed to the " narrow craft unionism " of the AFL, the IWW tried to appeal to the workers who were often discriminated against the most, including Black people, immigrants, and women. The Christian Science Monitor writes that Debs supported segregation on trains and effectively linked the labor movement to white men only. Eventually, this view changed to the point where Debs decided that as long as Black people were considered inferior, then white workers would be exploited. Compared to the other labor movements and organizations at the time, the IWW was more inclusive to foreign-born workers because "they reasoned the only way to reduce competition between native and foreign workers was to organize the latter rather than exclude them from labor organizations," writes Jennifer Jung Hee Choi in "The Rhetoric of Inclusion: The I.

Забастовки, тюрьмы и человечность Юджина Дебса
Подобно тому, как христианство стерло разницу между эллином и иудеем, в Едином Большом Профсоюзе должно было найтись место для рабочих всех профессий и уровней квалификации, для белых, черных и желтых. Для мужчин и для женщин, наконец, ведь далеко не все традиционные тред-юнионы того времени допускали членство работниц. И в 1905 году такой профсоюз был создан. У его руля встали Дебс и его товарищи по Соцпартии: Уильям «Большой Билл» Хейвуд, организатор шахтерских стачек, марксистский теоретик Даниэль де Леон, знаменитая пропагандистка и организатор Мэри Харрис «Мамаша» Джонс... Новая организация была названа броско: «Индустриальные рабочие мира» ИРМ. Лидер АФТ Гомперс утверждал: между трудом и капиталом нет непреодолимых противоречий. Создатели «Индустриальных рабочих мира» провозгласили противоположное: «Рабочий класс и класс нанимателей не имеют между собой ничего общего». Идеология «Единого большого профсоюза» привлекала многих. Сторонников ИРМ прибывало с каждым годом — в Америке их прозвали «вобблиз».
Споры о том, что означает это слово, идут до сих пор; кто-то возводит его к английскому названию циркулярной пилы, wobble saw, кто-то рассказывает, будто оно происходит от неудачной попытки выговорить слово «рабочий» worker неграмотным китайцем-кули. Власть оценила угрозу. Против лидеров ИРМ сразу начались репрессии. Уже в 1906 году Билла Хейвуда вместе с другим шахтерским лидером, Чарльзом Мойером, арестовали по обвинению в покушении на губернатора штата Айдахо. Отстоять их невиновность стоило больших трудов, в том числе Дебсу. Защищать товарищей по борьбе, попавших в жернова американской судебной системы, ему придется не раз. Параллельно он продолжает выставлять свою кандидатуру на президентский пост от соцпартии. Если на первых выборах он получил всего 20 тысяч голосов, то на вторых, в 1908 году, уже 500 тысяч, а еще четыре года спустя за Дебса проголосует миллион американцев.
Голос промышленных кварталов Нью-Йорка и Чикаго стал слышен. Вильсона открыто поддержали «правые» профсоюзы во главе с Сэмюэлем Гомперсом. Однако ИРМ и Дебс заняли отчетливо «антипатриотическую» позицию. Никто, никогда и нигде, — писал Дебс, — объявляя войны, не спрашивал мнения обычных людей. И наоборот, сами народы никогда и нигде не объявляли войны друг другу. Все войны начинались ради порабощения и грабежа». Вскоре, летом 1918 года, во время кампании по борьбе с германскими шпионами и их пособниками, его арестовали. Суд приговорил его, немолодого уже, шестидесятитрехлетнего человека, к десяти годам заключения.
Я признаю это. Джентльмены, я ненавижу войну». Отныне он — «заключенный номер 9563»; его не только приговорили к тюремному сроку, но и пожизненно лишили права голоса на выборах. В защиту Дебса выступали многие, но президент Вильсон отвечал категорическим отказом: «Когда цвет американской молодежи проливал свою кровь во имя цивилизации, этот человек, стоя за их спинами, нападал на них и обвинял их. Он предатель своей страны, и, пока я у власти, он помилован не будет».
In the year 1920, he contested the presidential elections from the Atlanta Federal Penitentiary. It is the ruling class that invariably does both. They alone declare war and they alone make peace.
