    The question may be essentially a red herring of whether help is given by the government.

    Governments help workers not by their own accord, but because workers struggle to develop power against the state-capital power duopoly that structures our society.

    Unions develop such power for workers.

    Labor advances not by being helped by government, but by developing power separate from government, for workers.
