I think my favorite part about this reading was the surprise on behalf of the factory when the workers began to strike.  It just amuses me that they though their working conditions were wonderful and didn't understand why someone would ever want to strike.  But also, I think it's important to note when the General says that the men can be replaced easily as if they were just machines themselves.  We learn that they believed that factory workers could be replaced with little to no effort but this is an actual instance when the workers were threatened with it.  I'm surprised they held their ground after that.  -Kelly W.
