    How do you form a labor union with people who don’t participate in the labor pool?

      Hobos do participate in the labor pool. They were migrant workers, and the union they formed was to help fight against anti-homeless/ worker legislation.

      People don’t realize Hobos aren’t 100% synonymous with homeless.

        The definition I’ve seen is Hobo: traveling looking for work Tramp: traveling but no interest in work Bum: don’t travel, don’t work
