dont want to turn this into a struggle session or anything but at the very best it graduates on from a #sohashtaggable phrase that maybe materializes into some weird neo-wobbly FDR era labor LARP posters

    Whats your opinion on a potential strike for a minimum wage increase? Could everyone making less than 35$ an hour strike until their wages get raised to that level and would that be more accomplishable?

      No. If a business offers $25/hr at entry level, do you really think people wouldn't accept it? Especially if they're about to run out of money for rent or other basic necessities?

      Striking involves a lot of risk and requires discipline and cohesion. If people are motivated by what they see as treats, then all it takes to break the strike is to offer treats for scabs.
