CIO: The abbreviation for the Congress of Industrial Organizations, which was originally a collection of industrial unions established due to a rift among AFL members in 1938, this is now one half of the umbrella organization for labor unions in the United States (the CIO part of AFL-CIO). Industrial unions included in the CIO, were originally part of the AFL. However, because the AFL primarily represented skilled workers in craft unions, a rift among AFL members developed in 1938, resulting in the creation of the CIO. This rift was closed in 1955, when both joined together to form the AFL-CIO, which is the primary advocate for workers and labor unions in the United States.

People can take different views of government and economic polices that depend on political philosophies.- Liberal Democrat: The view that government is the only way to keep the economy running smoothly, using paternalistic, hands-on policies. If a problem arises, then government is the answer.
- Conservative Republican: The view that government is the problem, not the solution. The best government is the least government because it is a tyrannical oppressor of individual rights and freedoms.
- One view or the other is usually the basis of an economic policy.
The government can be the solution and it can be the problem.
