362. lappuse - ... that is, their possession of these things and the employer's ignorance of them — that has enabled the workers to organize and force better terms from the employers.

This process it is evident separates skill and knowledge even in their narrow relationship. When it is completed the worker is no longer a craftsman in any sense, but is an animated tool...
