I came across this video that touches on a lot of topics discussed here and seem to be relatively objective:



Kind of a side note, but it mentions around the 12 minute mark that in the late 1800s, some workers needed to live in accommodations owned by their employer, which kept them basically in servitude, but this practice lasted far longer than that. When my parents came to Canada, they lived in housing (a camp actually) owned by their employer and almost all the money they made working went to pay for their room and board. It was essentially indentured labour. That was in the 1970s.
