American Workers

Famous quotes containing the words american and/or workers:

    The Oregon [matter] and the annexation of Texas are now all- important to the security and future peace and prosperity of our union, and I hope there are a sufficient number of pure American democrats to carry into effect the annexation of Texas and [extension of] our laws over Oregon. No temporizing policy or all is lost.
    Andrew Jackson (1767–1845)

    I suspect that American workers have come to lack a work ethic. They do not live by the sweat of their brow.
    Kiichi Miyazawa (b. 1919)
