No, it’s not the intent. It’s the fallout. Actions have consequences. Sure, in an ideal world they could strike and no one but the rich have to feel the burn, but life isn’t like that. Their strike has repercussions downstream, whether they like it or not. Does it lift all boats? Maybe, but why do we have to be sacrificed in the process? I’m pretty sure they would want us to give pause if the roles were reversed. And if you think the people affected are as civil and open minded as myself, wake up. They aren’t going to see it as the union standing up against the big corporations, they’ll see it as greedy unions holding our economy hostage so they can get a free vacation, and I don’t really see how that helps unions.
