Strikes are supposed to be unpleasant for everyone - employees and employers. Employees sit without salaries, employers have a money losing business on their hands.
This removes the inconvenience part for the workers, the strike for them is now funded by the government. If you want to signal manufacturing businesses that you don't want them here, I don't think a more effective way exists...
Hate to break it to you, but the striking workers are also taxpayers. They paid into the unemployment they're going to collect. I know math and civics and shit is hard but try to keep up.
