NEW: This Supreme Court case could devastate workers’ right to strike.
If wealthy corporations get their way, companies would be able to sue workers for the cost of a strike — like spoiled food, lost revenue, and more.
It would be a massive setback for the working class.
Would this militarize workers and cause them to start to disregard and becoming disillusioned with legality?
No. Americans are the most domesticated people on the planet. We literally have the enshrined right to bear arms and people with power feel safe to do this.
With time, yes. Right now? Probably not. But within this decade labor is going to become more militant as the desperation sinks in. Especially with the looming depression around the corner.
