>> On August 5, 1981, President Ronald Reagan fired every member of the air traffic controllers union (PATCO) who'd defied his order to return to work and declared their union illegal. They had been on strike for just two days.

He didn't "declare" it illegal. The strike WAS illegal.

Too bad he couldn't do the same to Teamster and UAW.
