    Most of your laborers were pretty non political and usually atleast decent, occasionally a good old school union guy.

    This is something that so many people, including some people on this website, continuously fail to consider. The vast majority of people who are actually reachable are politically apathetic and the slim minority are members of a third party. As soon as someone self-identifies as a member of the two parties, they're an op.

      Not an op, but generally unreachable. And the self identification is important, because tons of people vote for R and D but have very little attachment to either, these people are very reachable; hell i vote for democrats and i hate the democratic party, but atleast they arent calling for my extermination. If someone has invested enough psychic energy, or directly benefits materially from, self conscious identification with one of the parties the only way to really get to them is if they have some kind of crisis or break that leaves them open to propaganda.
