You realize that a rail strike would cripple the US, skyrocket inflation, and create shortages all over, right? Also that the unions overall didn’t want to strike, but if everyone in all but the smallest rail union voted not to strike and the smallest one voted to with the smallest majority they could they’d all be obligated to?

Almost as if that's the whole point of a strike or something lmfao

Pretty sure for people who aren't self important jackasses the point of a strike is to demonstrate to the upper parts of a company that the workers are a vital part of operations and force them into giving better conditions. Not actively making life worse for countless uninvolved people.

It's almost like you can't separate purpose and impact.
