      They encouraged class consciousness? How so?

      I thought they got wiped cause they wanted to stop using the central banks, but never really looked into them

        He started pushing for worker friendly regulations and enabling general strikes before he was assassinated.

        Executive Order 10988 is a United States presidential executive order issued by President John F. Kennedy on January 17, 1962 that granted federal employees the right to collective bargaining. This executive order was a breakthrough for public sector workers, who were not protected under the 1935 Wagner Act. Passage of the executive order forestalled the legislative Rhodes-Johnson Union Recognition bill, which would have given more power to federal employee unions, possibly creating a union shop arrangement. Executive Order 10988 was effectively replaced by President Richard Nixon’s Executive Order 11491 in 1969.

        MLK was also pushing for a general strike before he was assassinated.

        JFK flipped on the mob (who claims they killed him, but they are known for saying stuff) he wanted to shut down the CIA and possibly the FBI, He was clearing out the nut parade in the joint cheifs who were seriously suggesting to a WWII war hero that maybe indiscriminately bombing the US as a pretext to war was a great idea! He was also making in roads with Russia behind the scenes, and he had signed the withdraw papers to end The Vietnam War by the time he was assassinate. I don’t know who killed him, but I can tell you it was a busy week for the large amount of people that would greatly benifit from his sudden demise.
