Back when I lived in Chicago, the woman that was the manager of the apartment building had a brother that worked in the coal mines. The guy was literally broken. One of his legs was permanently bent at the knee, his hands looked crunched up and he had black lung disease. They did get paid in company money, live in company housing. You could never, ever get ahead or even break even. He started work there when he was a kid. By the time it got to the point where he couldn't work a day more, conditions were improving. He looked at least 10 years older than his actual age.
