I wonder why low wage workers have such low wages, Mr. Unions-shouldn’t-strike-so-hard?
If only? There was a? Way? To?? Help raise? Wages???
Makes u think
Real talk here, a lack of union power is why people have such shit wages and scabs just undermine union power more and keep wages low by letting companies ignore union demands.
The problem is that you are giving empathy to the perpetrator of a vehicular assault, and not giving empathy to the workers on strike who are putting their livelihoods on the line to try and make a bunch of other people’s lives better, even including the scabs who don’t have the spine to join them.
Not to mention that we have 8 hour workdays, weekends off, payed time off and other benefits all thanks to union efforts. All of them we take granted for. We shouldn’t forget where they came from.
I feel like you’re the one talking down here. Not everyone has the luxury of supporting the strike, they need to pay bills, and eat. If you can’t support that, then your opinion is not one of relevance.

Union strike IS for home and family. What do you think a strike is? Some frat boys protesting because someone dared them to do it?

Sounds like they should join a union… maybe one that respects picket lines, like the teamsters.

Pretty weird that you have an automated answer for every comment without responding to any of the points being made.

You speak of privilege when you’re talking down to striking workers.
I forgive you, but please stop and rethink that sentence.

The only thing separating underpaid workers from union workers is the picket line.
If they want better conditions, create or join a union.
Yes its hard. Yes you’ll be harassed, threatened and some even assaulted/killed.
But together, low paid workers can unionize and improve their life.
Which is also how we know it is effective.
Not to mention that we have 8 hour workdays, weekends off, payed time off and other benefits all thanks to union efforts. All of them we take granted for. We shouldn’t forget where they came from.
The five day workweek is thanks to unions.
Yep that’s what I said.

That’s a loser crab-bucket mentality and you know it. Do better.
Insightful
That’s what strike funds are for.

That’s true. I don’t know what that has to do with anything, but you’re technically correct. Congratulations.
