The IWW Bug, Microbus Rebellicus

Transcript:

Panel 1:

Workers: I can do more work than anyone in this gang. Hurry up! I can beat you!

Boss: It's a nice bunch of suckers. I think they will stand for a reduction in wages, alright.

Panel 2:

Boss: I am awful sorry boys, but business is slack. I have to cut your wages.

Workers: Alright boss. Too bad.

Panel 3:

the IWW bugs bite the workers

IWW Bugs: Don't submit! Bum pay, bum work! Organize. Use sabotage. Take it easy.

Panel 4:

IWW bugs flying away: If you fellows unite, you can abolish exploitation all together.

Workers performing work to rule: That's about enough for one load. Short pay, short shovel.

Panel 5:

Boss: Gee! What am I going to do. The whole country is going IWW bugs. Instead of cutting wages, I have to raise them.
