Question: -Do all workers have shared interests or do different workers have different interests? In other words, does it make sense to say that all workers are members of a working class that has a common class interest? Or, does it make more sense to distinguish workers into different classes with different interests?

As you develop your answer, you might also consider the following sub-questions. You don't need to answer all of these sub-questions. They are meant to help you frame your answer.

If you think workers are in a working class with shared interests, how do you account for the differences between workers (e.g. different kinds of work, different skill levels, different rates of pay), the inequalities within the working class (e.g. racism, sexism), and conflicts between workers (e.g. between union members and union leaders)? If you think that workers are in separate classes or don't share a common interest, how do you account for attempts by different groups of workers to act collectively (e.g. industrial unions)?
